Process parameter selection for selective laser melting of Ti6Al4V based on temperature distribution simulation and experimental sintering (2012, methodology): “SLM technique, as a solid free-form fabrication process by which a complex-shaped and intermetallic-based part can be built layer by layer by laser-wise scan of every powder bed [6], shows extraordinarily distinct advantages such as fully molten, low dilution, high hardness, rapid cooling, narrow he”
Additive manufacturing of high-strength crack-free Ni-based Hastelloy X superalloy (2019, background): “Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is an advanced technology for additive manufacturing (AM) in which metallic powder is selectively melted layer by layer using a high-power laser [1][2][3].”
Top surface and side roughness of Inconel 625 parts processed using selective laser melting (2009, background): “These thermal gradients cause a thermocapillary flow of a fluid within the melt pool from regions with low surface tension to regions with high surface tension, known as Marangoni convection ( Rombouts, 2006”
