Journal Article
Allum, J., Moetazedian, A., Gleadall, A., Mitchell, N., Marinopoulos, T., McAdam, I., …Silberschmidt, V. V. (2023). Extra-wide deposition in extrusion additive manufacturing: A new convention for improved interlayer mechanical performance. Additive Manufacturing, 61, Article 103334. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2022.103334

Recent studies have contested long-standing assumptions that mechanical anisotropy is caused by weak interlayer bonding and demonstrated that microscale geometry (the groove between extruded filaments) is the major cause of anisotropy in extrusion ad...

Fracture mechanisms of additively manufactured polylactide: Effect of in vitro hydrolytic degradation (2022)
Journal Article
Moetazedian, A., Gleadall, A., & V Silberschmidt, V. (2022). Fracture mechanisms of additively manufactured polylactide: Effect of in vitro hydrolytic degradation. Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 269, Article 108572. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engfracmech.2022.108572

This is the first study considering the effect of in vitro hydrolytic degradation at 37 °C on fracture mechanism of the most important aspect of additive manufacturing – the interface between layers. Specimens were tested transversely (failure betwee... Read More about Fracture mechanisms of additively manufactured polylactide: Effect of in vitro hydrolytic degradation.
