The prospects for the use of lightweight materials (aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, and
titanium alloys) in high volume vehicle manufacturing are discussed. Laser welding of …

Quality assessment methods and techniques for laser welding have been developed both in-
and post-process. This paper summarizes and presents relevant studies being classified …

Melting mode acts a significant role in determining the defect, microstructure and
mechanical properties of parts fabricated by selective laser melting. In this work, the effects …

This work describes a systematic alloy design strategy resulting in the development of a high
strength aluminum alloy adopted for L-PBF. First, based on the composition of a reference Al …

A two-dimensional Finite Difference (FD) model of the thermal history of parts manufactured
in powder bed fusion Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes is presented. The temperature …

Cracking is one of the most serious problems for the development of selective laser melting
(SLM) of high strength aluminum alloys. The process parameters applied in the SLM …

The microstructural evolution and precipitation behavior in additively manufactured age-
hardenable TiB 2/Al-Zn-Mg-Cu composites were investigated. As-built, direct-aged, solution …

This paper presents an empirical-statistical approach to predict solidification cracking during
laser cladding of Inconel 718 powder on A-286 Fe-based superalloy. This approach is …

Experimental investigations on cracking susceptibility were carried out for wire+ arc
additively manufactured (WAAM) Al-Cu-Mg alloys, which were designed and deposited with …

Aluminium alloys are widely used in many industries due to their high strength-to-weight
ratios and resistance to corrosion. Due to their specific thermophysical properties and …
