Abstract: A method of implementing administrative services for managing group feedback is disclosed. A selection of a feedback visibility setting for a feedback message from a plurality of predefined feedback visibility settings is received via a give feedback tab of a user interface. The feedback message and a selection of one or more recipients are received via the give feedback tab. The feedback message is sent to the selected one or more recipients based on the selected feedback visibility setting. A request for feedback and a selection of one or more feedback providers are received via a request feedback tab of the user interface. The request for feedback is sent to the selected one or more feedback providers. Received feedback responses linked to a user profile of the feedback requestor are stored.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for additive manufacturing a three-dimensional object layer-by-layer including depositing a layer of material on a bed surface or a previously deposited layer of the object to form the object layer-by-layer; providing energy to the material after each layer is deposited with the energy being provided by an energy source that forms an energized beam directed at the material; altering a property of a gas surrounding the material and through which the energized beam extends to alter a property of the object constructed from the material; melting the material with the energized beam to form a melted pool of liquefied material; and allowing the material to solidify to bond the material to a previous layer of material of the object.

Abstract: A method of repairing an air data probe includes assessing an air data probe for a damaged portion. The method includes depositing a material on the air data probe to repair the damaged portion of the air data probe. An air data probe includes a probe body including a sense port inlet defined through a wall of the probe body. At least a portion of the wall surrounding the sense port inlet is defined by a deposited material having a different microstructure than a material defining another portion of the wall.
