••
TL;DR: In this paper, the development of surface structure and porosity of Ti-6Al-4V samples fabricated by selective laser melting under different laser scanning speeds and powder layer thicknesses has been studied and correlated with the melt flow behavior through both experimental and modelling approaches.
689 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated computational materials science approach for selective laser melting (SLM) at the mesoscale is presented a particle dropping model was developed to simulate the representative powder-bed particle distribution of a measured titanium alloy powder Thermal fluid flow and resulting microstructural evolution of a set of laser scanned single tracks with different powder layer thicknesses and scanning speeds were also studied using both computational and experimental approaches.
219 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, a model for the creep deformation of single crystal superalloys is presented that is sensitive to chemical composition and microstructure, and the rate-controlling step is assumed to be climb of dislocations at the matrix/particle interfaces and their rate of escape from trapped configurations.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, a physics-based model for keyhole welding including heat transfer, fluid flow and interfacial interactions has been used to simulate keyhole and porosity formation during laser welding of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy.
171 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the morphology of pores changed from near-spherical to elongated shape as the laser scan speed increased, which is caused by the change of flow pattern in the melt pool which is dictated by forces such as vapour pressure, gravitational force, capillary and thermal capillary forces exerted on the metallic/gaseous interface.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the recoil pressure and Marangoni convection in laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) of 316L stainless steel was demonstrated. And the results were validated against the experiments and the sensitivity to laser absorptivity was discussed.
