Abstract:Although Additive Manufacturing (AM) offers numerous performance advantages over existing methods, AM structures are not being utilized for critical aerospace and mechanical applications due to uncertainties in their structural integrity as a result of microstructural variations and defects arising from the AM process itself. With strain localization serving as a precursor for material failure, the impact of microstructural variations in Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) produced Ti-6Al-4V on strain localiza… Show more
“…It has also been shown that there is not a correlation between the Schmid factor and high strain values measured by DIC in FCC materials [35]. On the other hand, Schmid law has been shown to be satisfactory to explain slip system activation in Ti-6Al-4V [14,36] and good correlation in the present study is also observed. Surface topography studies ( Fig.…”

“…High prismatic and basal Schmid factors also show good correlation with strain localization in the high aspect ratio ′ and ′ colonies respectively. However, correlation between strain localization in high aspect ratio ′ and high basal Schmid factor has also been reported in the literature [14]. At room temperature, the prismatic slip system in the α-Titanium displays the lowest critical resolved shear stress [32].…”

“…There are several methods for 3D printing metals including selective laser melting (SLM), selective electron beam melting (SEBM), directed energy deposition (DED) and binder jetting [5,6]. In the present study, we focus on selective laser melting (SLM) of Ti-6Al-4V that has attracted a lot of interest and results in a lamellar microstructure [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. In SLM, a thin layer of metal powder is spread on a powder bed and selectively fused using a high power laser.…”

“…In [31], tensile tests conducted with DIC at a macroscopic level underlines the fact that the existence of a microstructure gradient induces strain localization. Otherwise, other works use DIC at a smaller scale to highlight spatial distribution of strain within grains [4,7,9,29]. However, no study could be found where DIC is conducted at grain level in repaired microstructures.…”
Laser Cladding is an additive manufacturing technology enabling to repair complex metallic components by removing the worn region and reconstructing locally the initial geometry. The aim of this work is to study the mechanical response of Inconel 718 repaired thin walls. More precisely, we perform an EBSD imaging and in-situ SEM tensile tests on specimen whose gauge section contains the interface between base material and repaired area. We observe the multiaxial strain patterns until failure at the grain level using a Digital Image Correlation method and superpose this pattern with the microstructure gradient induced by repair. The observations highlight a strain localization phenomenon in repaired structures mainly due to grain size effect. *
“…It is necessary to provide wide complex of researches and tests. Titanium alloys are used in the following additive technology: melting layer by layer powder by electron beam (EBM) [1,2] or laser (SLM, SLS methods) [3,4], feeding melted powder or wire by plasma arc [5,6] or laser (DMLD) [7,8]. We suggest using laser metal deposition technology for manufacturing of titanium parts.…”
Abstract. The paper presents the results of mechanical properties study of the material produced by direct metal laser deposition of VT6 titanium powder. The properties were determined by the results of stretching at tensile testing machine, as well as compared with the properties of the same rolled material. These results show that obtained samples have properties on the level or even higher than that ones of the samples obtained from the rolled material in a certain range of technological regimes.
IntroductionTitanium alloys have already well approved themselves in chemical, marine, aerospace industries. They are very strong, able to withstand heavy loads and have reduced mass. In addition, titanium alloys are used for manufacturing implants and prostheses. Tissues around such implants are not subjects to change. They are resistant to corrosion in aggressive environment of the human body, and oxide coating on their surface prevents the escape of the implant ions into the body. However, the manufacture of titanium parts and implants is strictly individual task, as it is a material, which is difficult to process. This fact significantly increases the cost of a product. There is a significant interest in using different additive technology for manufacturing titanium parts in recent times. It is necessary to provide wide complex of researches and tests. Titanium alloys are used in the following additive technology: melting layer by layer powder by electron beam (EBM) [1,2] or laser (SLM, SLS methods) [3,4], feeding melted powder or wire by plasma arc [5,6] or laser (DMLD) [7,8]. We suggest using laser metal deposition technology for manufacturing of titanium parts. This technology involves melting of metallic powder feeding through the nozzle coaxially with the radiation. When the nozzle moves along the surface, new metal layer will be formed after solidification. Thus, it is possible to produce parts of the desired shape. The research presents the results of the mechanical properties study of the samples obtained by laser metal deposition technology by different technological modes.
