Das Interesse der Industrie an additiv gefertigten Bauteilen steigt z unehmend, wobei mit zunehmendem Verständnis der statischen Kennwerte nunmehr der Fokus in Richtung der dynamischen Festigkeiten wandert. Deswegen werden Einflussparameter auf die Lebensdauer und potenzielle Nachbearbeitungsmethoden untersucht und analysiert. Ein großer Einfluss ist dabei der Oberflächengüte und den durch Rautiefen initiierten Kerbeffekten zuzuschreiben. Deswegen werden unterschiedliche Methoden zur Verbesserung der Oberflächengüte untersucht. Dabei werden die Verfahren Laserpolieren, elektrochemisches Polieren und Hartmetallkugelstrahlen und deren Auswirkung auf Oberflächengüte sowie Härte untersucht. Für das elektrochemische Polieren werden die Proben in einer Perchlorsäure für 90 s bei 32 V und maximal 10 A poliert. Das Hartmetallkugelstrahlen wird mit einem UFS 100 Strahlmittel bei einem Druck von 4 bar und einer Strahldauer von 10 s ausgeführt. Anschließend werden Wöhlerlinien für die unterschiedlichen Zustände mittels Umlaufbiegeversuch ermittelt, welche mit Referenzwerten analysierter konventioneller Proben verglichen werden. Des Weiteren werden die Bruchflächen analysiert. Die Untersuchungen ergaben ein hohes Optimierungspotenzial der additiv gefertigten Proben bei einer Verdichtung der Oberfläche sowie einer Entfernung der Randschicht durch eine spanende Bearbeitung. Dadurch wurden höhere Zeitfestigkeiten als mit konventionell gefertigten Proben erreicht.
Development of environment-friendly natural fiber composites has been a recent trend. However, due to the fact that natural fibers permit high level of moisture absorption from the surroundings, it can lead to weak bindings and degradation of composite properties. This paper presents an experimental study on the dynamic performance of flax fiber composite beams manufactured at different relative humidity (RH) levels. Five types of flax fiber-reinforced composite materials were made under different RH values, i.e., dry, 35%, 50%, 70%, and 95% RH, and beam samples were prepared using the composite. Impact hammer testing was conducted to measure the natural frequencies and damping of the beams. It was found that for the first three modes, while the resonant frequencies are very close for most samples, there is a clear drop of frequencies for the composite fabricated at 95% RH. Along with an increase of the RH level, the damping ratios for all the three modes have reported a slight increase, but the variation is not significant.

Metal additive manufacturing of dental prostheses consisting of cobalt−chromium−tungsten (Co−Cr−W) alloys poses an alternative to investment casting. However, metal additive manufacturing processes like Laser Powder‐Bed Fusion (LPBF) can impact the elastic constants and the mechanical anisotropy of the resulting material. To investigate the phase compositions of mechanically different specimens in dependence of their postprocessing steps (e. g. heat treatment to relieve stress), the current study uses X‐ray Diffraction (XRD), Electron BackScatter Diffraction (EBSD), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) for phase identification. Our studies connect plastic deformation of Remanium star CL alloy with the formation of the hexagonal ϵ‐phase and heat treatment with the formation of the D024‐phase, while partially explaining previously observed differences in Young's moduli.
Laser powder bed fusion has become one of the major techniques within metal additive manufacturing, especially when delicate structures and high geometric accuracy are concerned. Lately, the awareness of the material-specific macroscopic anisotropy has risen and led to widespread investigations on the static mechanical strength. However, little is known about the fracture behavior of the layer-wise fabricated metal components and their affinity of crack propagation between consecutive layers, which is particularly important for aluminium–silicon alloys containing embrittled zones in double-irradiated areas. A recent study indicated that there is a significant drop in fracture toughness in case the crack growth direction is parallel to the layering. To investigate this matter further and to shed light on the fracture toughness behavior in the range of a 0°–45° angle offset between the crack growth direction relative to the layering, notched samples with varying polar angles were subjected to mode I fracture toughness testing. Our results indicate that the fracture toughness is an almost-stable characteristic up to a mismatch of about 20° between the crack propagation path and the layering, at which point the fracture toughness decreases by up to 10%.
Laser powder-bed fusion has become one of the most important techniques in additive manufacturing. For guaranteeing the possibility of manufacturing highly specialized and advanced components, currently intensive research is carried out in this field. One area of this research is the material-specific macroscopic anisotropy, which is investigated in our work by comprehensive static mechanical experiments. The material which was tested within this study was the precipitation-hardenable AlSi10Mg alloy, with the focus on installation space orientation. Tensile and compression tests were performed, the results for the Young's modulus in compressive loading exceeded the previously known values of this material in tensile loading and achieved values of up to 79.8 GPa. As a result of this investigation, a chemical spectroscopic analysis was undertaken and from the actual chemical composition, a relative density of 99.86% of the samples was determined.
Slips and stumbles are main causes of falls and result in serious injuries. Balance training is widely applied for preventing falls across the lifespan. Subdivided into two main intervention types, biomechanical characteristics differ amongst balance interventions tailored to counteract falls: conventional balance training (CBT) referring to a balance task with a static ledger pivoting around the ankle joint versus reactive balance training (RBT) using externally applied perturbations to deteriorate body equilibrium. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of reactive, slip-simulating RBT compared to CBT in regard to fall prevention and to detect neuromuscular and kinematic dependencies. In a randomized controlled trial, 38 participants were randomly allocated either to CBT or RBT. To simulate stumbling scenarios, postural responses were assessed to posterior translations in gait and stance perturbation before and after 4 weeks of training. Surface electromyography during short- (SLR), medium- (MLR), and long-latency response of shank and thigh muscles as well as ankle, knee, and hip joint kinematics (amplitudes and velocities) were recorded. Both training modalities revealed reduced angular velocity in the ankle joint (P < 0.05) accompanied by increased shank muscle activity in SLR (P < 0.05) during marching in place perturbation. During stance perturbation and marching in place perturbation, hip angular velocity was decreased after RBT (P from TTEST, Pt < 0.05) accompanied by enhanced thigh muscle activity (SLR, MLR) after both trainings (P < 0.05). Effect sizes were larger for the RBT-group during stance perturbation. Thus, both interventions revealed modified stabilization strategies for reactive balance recovery after surface translations. Characterized by enhanced reflex activity in the leg muscles antagonizing the surface translations, balance training is associated with improved neuromuscular timing and accuracy being relevant for postural control. This may result in more efficient segmental stabilization during fall risk situations, independent of the intervention modality. More pronounced modulations and higher effect sizes after RBT in stance perturbation point toward specificity of training adaptations, with an emphasis on the proximal body segment for RBT. Outcomes underline the benefits of balance training with a clear distinction between RBT and CBT being relevant for training application over the lifespan.

A number of planetary boundaries, including climate change as a result of greenhouse gas emissions, has already been exceeded. This situation has deleterious consequences for public health. Paradoxically, 4.4% of these emissions are attributable to the healthcare sector. These problems have not been sufficiently acknowledged in health professions curricula. This paper addresses two main issues, humanistic learning and the application of knowledge acquisition to clinical practice. Humanistic learning principles can be used to emphasize learner-centered approaches, including knowledge acquisition and reflection to increase self-awareness. Applying humanistic principles in everyday life and clinical practice can encourage stewardship, assisting students to become agents for change. In terms of knowledge and skills application to clinical practice, an overview of varied and novel approaches of how sustainable education can be integrated at different stages of training across several health care professions is provided. The Health and Environment Adaptive Response Taskforce (HEART) platform as an example of creating empowered learners, the NurSusTOOLKIT, a multi-disciplinary collaboration offering free adaptable educational resources for educators and the Greener Anaesthesia and Sustainability Project (GASP), an example of bridging the transition to clinical practice, are described.
