Utilizing Pre-trained Language Models to Support Circular Design Decision-Making

February 23, 2026
Author(s)
Ananya Nandy, Ashley Hartwell, Katherine Morris
Circular practices (e.g., extending product/component life and recovering end-of-life products) can divert products from waste streams, creating alternative material sources and resilient production systems. Recently developed design guidelines and

An Improved Robotic Workcell for Operational Technology (OT) Research

December 18, 2025
Author(s)
Timothy Zimmerman, Michael Pease, Michael Dawson
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has constructed a discrete manufacturing workcell to support its operational technology (OT) and critical infrastructure research. This work is an improvement on the "Collaborative Robotics Testbed"

Twin-related grain boundary engineering of additively manufactured 316L stainless steel

December 1, 2025
Author(s)
Chenglu Tang, Jingfan Yang, Fan Zhang, Joseph Aroh, Ernest Porterfield, Barton Prorok, Xiaoyuan Lou
Twin-related grain boundary engineering (GBE) enhances the boundary-related degradation of materials, such as intergranular corrosion by incorporating a high density of twin boundaries. Conventional GBE typically requires one or multiple thermomechanical

REDUCING THE CYBERSECURITY RISKS OF PORTABLE STORAGE MEDIA IN OT ENVIRONMENTS

September 30, 2025
Author(s)
Michael Powell, Fenimore Philip, Stephanie Saravia
Though portable storage media are convenient, their unregulated use poses cybersecurity risks for organizations utilizing them in their OT environments. Procedural, physical, and technical controls are important because they can minimize the likelihood of

Reference Model for Electric Vehicle Battery Recovery in a Circular Economy

September 30, 2025
Author(s)
Matthew Triebe, Nehika Mathur, Ashley Hartwell, Katherine Morris
Electric vehicle batteries, which use a significant amount of critical materials, have the potential to be a reliable secondary source of those high-value materials at the end of their life to meet future needs. In this paper we present a reference model

Evaluation of Variations in Solution Annealing, Intercritical Annealing, and Aging Treatments on Cobalt-free Maraging Steels

Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Jake Benzing, Alec Saville, Cassidy Allen, Jordan Weaver, Nikolas Hrabe, Timothy Quinn, Timothy Weeks, Newell Moser, Chad Beamer, Christin Aumayr, Tilman Seifert, Michael Hirtler
This work is a compilation and summary of the quasi-static mechanical properties of a novel cobalt-free maraging steel, M789, that underwent a series of various heat treatments which included solution annealing, intercritical annealing, and aging

Advanced Characterization of the Cure Kinetics of a Liquid Encapsulant

June 26, 2025
Author(s)
Anthony Kotula, Ran Tao, Jianwei Tu, Young Lee, Gale Holmes
Liquid encapsulants are versatile packaging materials that provide electrical insulation and mechanical protection for microelectronic devices. As more advanced encapsulants are formulated to address modern packaging needs, advanced characterization

The trace of heat: on the predictive power of modeling transient diffusion

June 26, 2025
Author(s)
Vijaya Holla, Jesse Redford, Philipp Kopp, Stefan Kollmannsberger
The paper at hand evaluates the validity of the transient heat equation with phase change and temperature-dependent coefficients as a model to predict the evolution of melt pools for rapid turnaround scan strategies in a laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB)

Residual stress-assisted static globularization in electron beam powder bed fusion Ti-6Al-4V from powder recovery and hot isostatic pressing

June 10, 2025
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Thomas Berfield, Keenan Hanson, Jake Benzing, Nikolas Hrabe
The residual stresses from controlled powder recovery blasting on electron beam powder bed fusion (PBF-EB) Ti-6Al-4V were investigated via hole drilling, profilometry, and microscopy. After hot isostatic pressing, the near-surface lamellar the near-surface
