Additively manufactured (AM) materials are prone to porosity, which limits their widespread
adoption in fatigue-limited applications. Experimental campaigns are vital in understanding …

Progress towards widespread adoption of additively manufactured (AM) components
requires a strong understanding of the influence of pervasive pore defects on the material's …

Additive manufacturing (AM) has the potential to revolutionize the way parts are designed
and manufactured; however, AM also produces defects that influence the performance of the …

The inherent defects associated with materials produced by selective laser melting (SLM)
limits their usage in safety-critical applications. In our work, a crystal plasticity (CP) based …

A crystal plasticity finite element modelling method integrated with a stored energy density
criterion is utilized to comparatively investigate fatigue crack nucleation behaviour and …

A degree of porosity is expected in additively manufactured (AM) materials. To aid in the
qualification of AM materials, the smallest pore size that results in a debit in the fatigue …

Defects in additively manufactured alloys commonly reduce fatigue life, and traditional SN
portrayals of the data provide little insight into failure mechanisms. Closer observation of …

Additive manufacturing (AM) can create net or near-net-shaped components while
simultaneously building the material microstructure, therefore closely coupling forming the …

Additive manufacturing offers significant design versatility which can be leveraged for
complex geometries and microstructural tailoring through the manipulation of numerous …

Studies on additive manufactured (AM) materials have shown that porosity reduces the
fatigue strength. However, the quantitative impact is not well understood. This paper …
