Additive manufacturing (AM) technology is undergoing rapid development as an advanced
technique for fabricating light-weight and complex-shape metallic parts with acceptable …

The fatigue response of Additive Manufacturing (AM) components is driven by
manufacturing defects-whose size mainly depends on process parameters-and by the …

The design against fatigue failures of Additively Manufactured (AM) components is a
fundamental research topic for industries and universities. The fatigue response of AM parts …

The application of additively manufactured high strength aluminium base alloys is, among
others limited due to either a lack in processability or economic feasibility with the alloys …

Welding and joining of hybrid components consisting of additively manufactured (AM) parts
and conventionally processed parts offer new opportunities in structural design. In the …

In many metals and alloys, low-cycle fatigue (LCF) and thermomechanical fatigue (TMF)
generate a large number of surface microcracks. Using the replica technique, we document …

The near-net-shape manufacturing in additive manufactured and cast of Al-Si alloys results
in a heterogeneous solidification and cooling of the parts, leading to significant gradients in …

Factors such as high degrees of design freedom and flexibility in the production process
contribute to a continued interest in the additive manufacturing (AM) process in industrial …

While the fatigue behaviour and failure mechanisms of additively-manufactured AlSi10Mg
aluminium alloy subjected to post-processing heat treatments carried out at temperatures …
