Effects of Defects in Laser Additive Manufactured Ti-6Al-4V on Fatigue Properties

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis and simulation of crack propagation behavior considering laser additive manufacturing specific defects, such as porosity and surface roughness, is presented for the mechanical characterization of laser additive manufactured titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of process-induced microstructure and imperfections on mechanical properties of AlSi12 processed by selective laser melting

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of samples of AlSi12 have been manufactured by SLM process to study the effect of process parameters and post-build heat treatment on the microstructure and corresponding mechanical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Process Parameters on the Quality of Aluminium Alloy EN AW 7075 Using Selective Laser Melting (SLM)

TL;DR: In this paper, a wide range of process parameters were selected to optimize the process in terms of optimum volume density and the influence of processing parameters on the chemical composition of the selected alloy was determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) Performance of Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Processed by Selective Laser Melting

TL;DR: In this paper, high cycle fatigue (HCF) tests were performed for as-built, polished and shot-peened samples to investigate the capability of selective laser melting (SLM) for these applications.
