Researchers at the University of California, San Diego’s (UCSD) Jacobs School of Engineering have applied post-tensioning, a technique commonly used in the construction of concrete buildings and ...

UItrasonic welding is a method of joining two parts by converting electrical energy into heat energy by high frequency mechanical vibration and is suitable for plastics and metals. One part of the ...

Ultrasonics can effectively join together thin, fragile conductive materials, such as copper, aluminum, nickel, brass, titanium, silver, and even gold, that are essential to advanced battery ...

"Our students started early last (school) year, last October, designing it," said CADD Engineering Technology teacher Craig Shmidt. "We had a team of six CADD engineering students design it." In all, ...

The application of high-frequen-cy switch-mode power-supply (SMPS) technology in welding equipment has yielded many of the same benefits associated with SMPSs in other, nonindustrial designs. By ...

The American Welding Society awarded a $25,000 Foundation Workforce Grant to Aiken Technical College, according to a Tuesday news release from ATC. With the grant funds, the college's welding lab will ...
