The underlying cause of mechanical anisotropy in additively manufactured (AM) parts is not
yet fully understood and has been attributed to several different factors like microstructural …

Abstract Structure–property relationships of an additively manufactured 316L stainless steel
were explored. A scanning electron microscope and electron backscattered diffraction …

The present paper aims to contribute to the understanding of the process-(micro) structure-
property linkage in additively manufactured materials. The scanning pattern effects on the …

We investigated the relationship between the microstructure and mechanical properties of
additive manufactured AISI 316L steel regarding the grain aspect ratio and orientation. For …

Three 316L stainless steel materials are studied and reported upon; wrought, as-built
additively manufactured (AM), and heat-treated AM material. The AM material was produced …

This study investigates the mechanical behavior of laser-cladded and additively
manufactured AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel (MSS) in the longitudinal and transverse …

Additive manufacturing (AM) builds materials layer upon layer with the aid of an energy
source. During AM processing, the complex thermal behaviors—directional heat flux, rapid …

The effect of build geometry and orientation on the microstructure and mechanical properties
of additively manufactured AISI 316L stainless steel was studied. For this an integrated laser …

Among the additive manufacturing processes, selective laser melting has gained wide
popularity for manufacturing austenitic stainless steel (316L) due to the inherent advantages …

Microstructural anisotropy widely exists in the additive manufactured components during the
rapid solidification process, slender columnar grains were formed along the building …
