The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mechanical properties of open-cell metallic biomaterials manufactured using additive manufacturing (2013, unknown): “In certain applications, heat treatments are carried out after the manufacturing process to relieve such residual thermal stresses [25].”
Heat treatment of Ti6Al4V produced by Selective Laser Melting: Microstructure and mechanical properties (2012, background): “Only limited research has been performed on this topic [5, 26, 27], and has mainly been observational.”
Microstructure and mechanical behaviour of Ti―6Al―7Nb alloy produced by selective laser melting (2011, background): “5 and 6, martensitic regions extend through the build with preferential planes of crystallographic growth arranged at a 45° angle to the z-axis, similarly as in the research of Sercombe [18].”
Measurement Science Needs for Real-time Control of Additive Manufacturing Powder Bed Fusion Processes (2015, background): “The most commonly discussed method of reducing residual stress was through post process heat treatment [93], [99], [70], [96], although these results have little impact on process control.”
