Abstract
In this study, macro-scale thermal simulation of the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process is employed to predict and limit geometry-induced overheating of complex Ti6Al4V components. First, the overheating effect is reproduced in tensile specimens. Overheating is found to increase [...]Abstract
Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been a subject of significant attention from both industrial manufacturers and research communities. However, several challenges hinder the widespread implementation of this technology in the industry. Powder recoating is a crucial step in powder-bed [...]
