Abstract

This paper describes the formulation adopted for the numerical simulation of the shaped metal deposition process (SMD) and the experimental work carried out at ITP Industry to calibrate [...]

Abstract

In this work the numerical simulation of Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes is addressed. The numerical results are compared with the experimental campaign carried out at SKLSP laboratories, where a Laser Solid Forming (LSF) machine, also referred to as Laser Engineered Net [...]

Abstract

Residual stresses and distortions are two technical obstacles for popularizing the additive manufacturing (AM) technology. The evolution of the stresses in AM components during the thermal [...]

Abstract

The paper presents an up‐to‐date finite element numerical model for fully coupled thermo‐mechanical problems, focussing in the simulation of solidification processes of industrial [...]
