Additive manufacturing (AM) plays a crucial role in the manufacturing and development of
advanced materials including titanium alloys for engineering applications. During the last …

In metal additive manufacturing (AM), the material microstructure and part geometry are
formed incrementally. Consequently, the resulting part could be defect-and anomaly-free if …

Currently, no systematic approach exists to simulate the crack initiation and propagation
process in very-high-cycle fatigue including the microstructure sensitivity. A combined crystal …

Due to the defects, the performance of laser directed energy deposition (LDED) parts was
restricted. This work investigated the strain-controlled high-temperature fatigue behavior of …

This study investigates the impact of post-processing techniques on the fatigue behaviour of
specimens in Ti6Al4V made by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) for relevant applications …

The mechanical properties of the additive manufactured (AM) nickel-based alloys: GH4169
and Hastelloy X were estimated via small punch tensile (SPT) tests. The surface defects of …

Large sizes and destructive items hindered standard uniaxial testing for in-service parts
manufactured by laser additive manufacturing (LAM). Therefore, small-scale testing …

The grains, cellular structures, dislocation densities, and oxides in L-PBF 316LSS were
systematically characterized. The microstructure evolution and mechanical properties were …

Metal lattice structures produced by means of additive techniques are attracting increasing
attention thanks to the high structural efficiency they can offer. In order to achieve the …

Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) reinforced by 5 wt% B4C particles were fabricated by
direct laser deposition (DLD) technology. The phase composition, microstructure, and …
