Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced manufacturing technologies are required to produce hybrid structures with advanced high-strength steel, aluminum, magnesium, titanium, composites, etc. Additionally, they are needed to effectively join hybrid structures together, which can contribute to increasing the weight-to-strength structural performance of transportation components and decreasing the fuel consumption and gas emission of transportation systems.

Therefore, this Special Issue aims to provide a platform for the discussion of open issues and challenges related to various manufacturing strategies employable in hybrid structures.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Design and analysis for the manufacturing of hybrid structures;
  • Advanced and novel manufacturing technologies for hybrid structures;
  • Additive manufacturing technologies for hybrid structures;
  • Advanced joining technologies for hybrid structures

This study presents a methodology to prevent the overdesign of electric dispensers for dental impression materials by analyzing the necessary load and determining the appropriate pressurization speed and drive motor capacity. We derived an equation to calculate the required torque and rotational speed of the motor based on the extrusion load and the speed of the impression material. A specialized load measurement system was developed to measure the load necessary to extrude the impression material. Through experiments and image processing, we measured the radius of curvature of the trajectory of the impression material and correlated it with the pressurization speed. Techniques such as position coordinate plotting, curve fitting, and circle fitting were employed to determine the pressurization speed that aligns with the manufacturer’s recommended curvature radius. These findings led to a substantial decrease in the necessary motor torque and rotational speed compared with the current standards. This research provides a systematic approach to sizing drive motors using extrusion load and pressurization speed, aiming to reduce overdesign, power consumption, and the weight and size of the motor and battery, thereby contributing to the development of more efficient and compact dental impression material dispensers.
