The demonstration of salt dissolution incorporated within laser powder-bed fusion fabrication processes has allowed the creation of complex porous structures without the need for sophisticated design algorithms. This serves to simplify the process, f...

The Influence of Iron in Minimizing the Microstructural Anisotropy of Ti-6Al-4V Produced by Laser Powder-Bed Fusion (2020)
Journal Article
Simonelli, M., McCartney, D. G., Barriobero-Vila, P., Aboulkhair, N. T., Tse, Y. Y., Clare, A., & Hague, R. (2020). The Influence of Iron in Minimizing the Microstructural Anisotropy of Ti-6Al-4V Produced by Laser Powder-Bed Fusion.

There remains a significant challenge in adapting alloys for metal based Additive Manufacturing (AM). Adjusting alloy composition to suit the process, particularly under regimes close to industrial practice, is therefore a potential solution. With th...
