TL;DR: This work reviews the advantages given by additive manufacturing technologies, which include the possibility to create porous complex structures to improve osseointegration and mechanical properties, to lower processing costs, to produce custom-made implants according to the data for the patient acquired via computed tomography and to reduce waste.

TL;DR: In this article, a large description of additive manufacturing techniques for obtaining Al alloys and Al matrix composites is given, and results on mechanical properties, roughness and microstructure achievable with such fabrication route on Al alloy are reported.

TL;DR: The state of the art of the aluminum alloys used in the laser powder bed fusion process, together with the microstructural and mechanical characterizations are reviewed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the mechanical behavior and microstructure of as-built and heat-treated Inconel 625 (IN625) samples processed by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF).

TL;DR: The carbides were extracted from the austenitic matrix and characterized by combining different techniques, showing the formation of various types of Mo-rich carbides, classified as M6C, M12C and MnCm type.
