About

Thomas Hassel is a researcher specializing in advanced manufacturing and biomedical engineering, with a focus on additive manufacturing, non-vacuum electron beam (NVEB) technology, and robotic-assisted surgical techniques. His most impactful work, "Properties and anisotropy behaviour of a nickel base alloy material produced by robot-based wire and arc additive manufacturing" (2020, 65 citations), explores the mechanical properties and directional behavior of nickel alloys in robotic additive processes, contributing to the development of cost-effective, large-scale metal component production. Hassel also investigates NVEB systems, notably in "Beam extraction using non vacuum electron beam by reduced acceleration voltage" (2018, 4 citations), where he addresses X-ray radiation challenges by lowering acceleration voltage, enhancing safety and compactness for industrial applications. In biomedical engineering, his work "Robot guided water jet cutting to assist osteotomies of human bones" (2014, 2 citations) demonstrates a novel, precise method for bone cutting in displacement osteotomies, integrating robotics and water jet technology for improved surgical outcomes. With a cumulative citation count of over 70, Hassel’s contributions bridge materials science, manufacturing innovation, and medical robotics, offering practical solutions for industry and healthcare. His interdisciplinary approach underscores his role in advancing sustainable, high-precision fabrication and surgical assistance technologies.
