X-ray imaging at nano and micro-scale is of great importance for the material science and defense industry. Large penetration depth and low wavelength of x-rays offer an important potential to image objects at high resolution and in a non-invasive process. While the ever-growing community is pursuing novel applications and looking...
At its core, the purpose of microscopy is to make objects and their underlying structures visible under high magnification. With the remarkable progress of electron microscopy, the sub-micron “high” magnification of light microscopy has been completely refashioned to encompass subatomic length scales. Unfortunately, higher-magnification does little to negate existing interpretability...
Manufacturing processes are known for their intricacies in changing material shapes and properties. New generations of manufacturing technologies, known as flexible manufacturing, are moving toward design freedom, which allows producing parts with optimized geometries and high customizations at an affordable cost even for low-volume productions. Two prominent flexible manufacturing processes...
