In this work, we show that selective laser melting (SLM), apart from producing complex
structures, can also act as a metallurgical method to modify the Ni/Ti ratio of NiTi shape …

Selective laser melting (SLM) of NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) was studied
systematically for the resulting density and surface roughness. It was found that high laser …

NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) have the best combination of properties among the
different SMAs. However, the limitations of conventional manufacturing processes and the …

Generally, processing of Nickel-Titanium shape memory alloys (NiTi) is challenging
because functional and structural properties of this material strongly depend on …

The use of micro selective laser melting (μ-SLM) enables product miniaturization, which is
one of the megatrends in the metal processing industry and increasingly find its applications …

Due to unique functional and mechanical properties, NiTi shape memory alloys are one of
the most promising metallic functional materials. However, the poor workability limits the …

Additive manufacturing of NiTi shape memory alloys has attracted attention in recent years,
due to design flexibility and feasibility to achieve four-dimensional (4D) function response …

In this study, a near equiatomic NiTi alloy was fabricated by selective laser melting method
(SLM). The effects of laser power and scanning speed on the tensile properties, shape …

In this work, NiTi samples with different thicknesses (0.15–1.00 mm) were fabricated by laser
powder bed fusion (LPBF) under variable scanning speeds (500–1200 mm s–1). The …

Selective laser melting (SLM) is used to fabricate near-equiatomic NiTi alloy from Ni–Ti
mixed element powders. The influence of energy input on formability, microstructure, phase …
