Image-Guided Incremental Bending of Orthopedic Fixation Plates for Personalized Fit
TS-073051 —
Surgeons routinely hand‑bend standard titanium or stainless‑steel fixation plates to conform to patient anatomy, a manual process that is time‑consuming, inconsistent, and prone to gaps, reversed bends, and unfavorable residual stress. Each of these factors can compromise fixation and outcom…

Design Features of Dissimilar Material-Reinforced Blanks and Extrusions for Forming
TS-037334 — A method for reinforcing formed metal parts with fiber and/or metallic reinforcement.
To date, a key method of lightweighting automobiles has been “down-gauging” sheet metal components or changing to a “lightweight” material such as aluminum from steel. Reducing sheet metal gage has a limitation in formed metal components based upon strength, stiffness, ener…

Stretchable and Flexible E-Fiber Wire Antennas
TS-014971 — A new process to fabricate stretchable and flexible wire antennas with conductive fibers (E-fibers)
Current processes to manufacture flexible, mechanically durable antennas on E-fibers yield non-stretchable prototypes and lack fine print details. The geometric accuracy of printed antennas is less than 1 mm, and the devices are prone to failure due to fatigue and wear from deformation. The antenn…
