Performance Evaluation Of Alsi10mg Fabricated By A Selective Laser Melting Process, David Michael Murphy Jan 2020

Performance Evaluation Of Alsi10mg Fabricated By A Selective Laser Melting Process, David Michael Murphy

Masters Theses

“Selective laser melting is becoming a widely used additive manufacturing technique that melts metal powder in a layer by layer process in order to build a desired part or geometry. Like many additive processes, selective laser melting allows for fabrication of parts with complex geometries. In order to fabricate a fully dense part there are a number of variables to take into account including: powder characteristics, laser parameters, and environmental parameters. Each of these variables can affect the microstructure and thus the mechanical performance of an additively manufactured part. In this work, the aluminum alloy AlSi10Mg was investigated. AlSi10Mg is …


Influence Of Input Energy On Mechanical Properties Of Laser Powder Bed Fused Aisi 304l Stainless Steel, Tan Pan Jan 2020

Influence Of Input Energy On Mechanical Properties Of Laser Powder Bed Fused Aisi 304l Stainless Steel, Tan Pan

Masters Theses

“Powder Bed Fusion process with selective laser melting technique is popularly adopted in additive manufacturing area on account of its layer by layer manufacturing fashion capable of fabricating components with complex internal and external geometries and structures. However, the process-property map is unique and vital for different materials and AM configurations used for fabrication. The process parameter is identified as a significant factor that heavily influences the properties and performances of the printed materials.

Current work aimed to extend the existing knowledge on Laser Powder Bed Fusion fabricated AISI 304L by accessing the influence of varying energy input on the …
