Additive manufacturing (AM) has rapidly transformed from a novelty prototyping technology into a growing sector of production across a wide range of industries. Much work has been documented in literature to demonstrate the behavior of AM products under static and quasi-static loading conditions. However, the behavior of AM materials under high strain rate loading is not as well understood. This research attempts to advance the fundamental knowledge of the relationship between the unique aspects of AM and the mechanical performance under high velocity impact loading conditions.
This project examines the behavior of AM 316L stainless steel (SS) exposed to high …
