The experimental and numerical simulation analysis of a TiAl alloy by laser metal deposition technology is presented in this paper. The research examines the macroscopic morphology, microstructure, and mechanical properties of samples as laser power varies. It also delves into how the temperature field and residual stress evolve under different laser powers.

To address this issue, and aiming to achieve precise and nondestructive cleaning of room temperature vulcanized (RTV) coatings, we selected millisecond laser cleaning technology in this study. Successful and efficient cleaning of the RTV coating was performed by adjusting laser parameters.

In this paper, a numerical simulation model was established to describe the thermal effect of the Diamond-CuSn10 composite on the LPBF process. The simulation results show that the temperature of the diamond presents a double-peak structure, and the double-peak temperature curve shape can be modulated by modifying the laser scanning offset and the size of the diamond powder.

Two image positions in the focal plane of the CCD are compared with the traits overlap according to the image splicing principle, and four typical errors are corrected on the basis of the total grating errors. Simultaneously, the rotation error of the mask is used to summarize the grayscale variation function of the CCD image.
