...This has been well documented in the literature [7] and is characterised by a columnar prior-β grain structure with epitaxial β <100> crystal growth parallel to the build direction (Figure 4c,d) due to primary thermal gradients that exist in the build direction (parallel and opposite to the principal direction of heat flow on cooling)....
