Patents by Inventor Nicholas Mykulowycz

Nicholas Mykulowycz has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240368741
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 12042998
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are drawn to systems and methods for adjusting a three-dimensional (3D) model used in metal additive manufacturing to maintain dimensional accuracy and repeatability of a fabricated 3D part. These embodiments may be used to reduce or remove geometric distortions in the fabricated 3D part. One exemplary method may include: receiving, via one or more processors, a selection made by a user; receiving a 3D model of a desired part; retrieving at least one model constant based on the user's selection; receiving an input of at least one process variable setting from a set of process variable settings; generating transformation factors based on the at least one process variable parameter and the at least one model constant; transforming the 3D model of the desired part based on the transformation factors; and generating processing instructions for fabricating the transformed 3D model of the desired part.
