Abstract Ti–5V–5Mo–5Al–3Cr (Ti-5553) is a near-beta titanium alloy commonly used in
aerospace applications. It is currently being explored for additive manufacturing (AM), but …

Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies, particularly laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), are
revolutionising the production of complex geometries and lightweight structures …

Establishing the connection between multi-scale heterostructures and mechanical
performance is a hot topic in laser additive manufacturing (LAM) research. The role of …

Directional heating during metal additive manufacturing promotes the growth of a columnar-
grained microstructure along the building direction with a preferred crystal orientation, which …

A novel approach for determining triaxial residual stress states by coupling energy
dispersive X-ray diffraction and contour method measurements is provided and validated in …

In this study, the strength and ductility of a direct energy deposited (DEDed) metastable β Ti-
5Al-5Mo-5 V-3Cr (wt%, Ti-5553) alloy was explored by tuning the formation of various α …

Rapid heating and solidification rates involved in additive manufacturing result in non-
homogenous microstructural features, microsegregation and residual stresses, leading to …

In this work, laser powder bed fused Ti-5553 parts were characterized after solution
treatment at 800° C or 900° C followed by aging at 500 to 700° C for 2 h. Depending upon …

The present paper investigates static and dynamic precipitation phenomena in the Ti6Al4V
alloy produced via laser-powder bed fusion, solubilized at 1050° C and aged in the range of …
