A method for the additive manufacturing of an object and a system for manufacturing an object. The method includes depositing a first foil layer, the first foil layer including a first body section, a first support section connected to the first body section, and a second support section connected to the first body section; depositing a second foil layer, the second foil layer comprising a second body section, a third support section, and a fourth support section; aligning the second foil layer and the first foil layer; and applying at least one of heat and pressure to the first foil layer and the second foil layer to form the object comprising the first body section and the second body section.

Support structures for laminated metallic parts

A method for the manufacturing of an object. The method includes receiving a desired alloy composition for the object, depositing a plurality of foils in a stack to form the object, applying heat to the stack at a first temperature to bond the plurality of foils to each other, and applying heat to the stack at a second temperature to homogenize the composition of the stack. The homogenized stack has the desired alloy composition.

Homogenizing heterogeneous foils for light alloy metal parts

Methods and systems for manufacturing a workpiece. The method described herein includes depositing at least a first sheet on a substrate, the first sheet comprising a first part region and a first support structure region separated at least in part by a first void space; and operably positioning a plate with respect to the first sheet so that the first void space forms a channel suitable for carrying a fluid.

Support structures with fluid channels

A fissile neutron detection system includes an ionizing thermal neutron detector arrangement including an inner peripheral shape that at least substantially surrounds a moderator region for detecting thermal neutrons that exit the moderator region but is at least generally transparent to the incident fissile neutrons. A moderator is disposed within the moderator region having lateral extents such that any given dimension that bisects the lateral extents includes a length that is greater than any thickness of the moderator arrangement transverse to the lateral extents. The moderator can include major widthwise and major lengthwise lateral extents such that any given dimension across the lengthwise and widthwise lateral extents includes a length that is greater than any thickness of the moderator arrangement transverse to the lateral extents.

Advanced fissile neutron detection system and method

A narrow thermal neutron detector includes a slidably receivable ionization thermal neutron detector module within an overall housing body. An active sheet layer of the ionization thermal neutron detector module can be tensioned across its width. The ionization thermal neutron detector module can include module upper major surface extents and module lower surface extents such that, when installed within the housing body, the module upper major surface extents are in a first spaced apart confronting relationship with housing upper major surface extents to define a first clearance and module lower major surface extents are in a second spaced apart confronting relationship with housing lower major surface extents to define a second clearance to accommodate housing flexing due to ambient pressure change. The housing body can be formed with a single opening for receiving the ionization thermal neutron detection module or with opposing first and second opposing end openings.
