This article from Carl B. Miller of the U.S. Laser Corporation provides an in-depth, technical introduction to the topic of laser welding. Process principles are covered here, and details on welding calculations are provided. Other sections include laser welding factors and considerations, metallurgical considerations, the advantages of laser welding, evaluating laser welding systems and laser safety. A list of references is also provided. This page is an excellent reference for students learning the basics of this type of welding technology.

The North Carolina Community College System BioNetwork's interactive eLearning tools (IETs) are reusable chunks of training that can be deployed in a variety of courses or training programs. IETs are designed to enhance, not replace hands-on training. Learners are able to enter a hands-on lab experience better prepared and more confident. This particular IET delves into lyophilization (freeze drying), including the basics of lyophilization, how sublimation works, operation and the components of a lyophilizer, and the advantages of freeze drying. Flash is required to participate in this learning module.
