Fabrication of black body grids by thick film printing for quantitative neutron imaging

June 8, 2022
Author(s)
Martin Wissink, Kirk Goldenberger, Luke Ferguson, Yuxuan Zhang, Hassina Bilheux, Jacob LaManna, David Jacobson, Michael Kass, Charles Finney, Jonathan Willocks
Neutron imaging offers deep penetration through many high-Z materials while also having high sensitivity to certain low-Z isotopes such as 1H, 6Li, and 10B. This unique combination of properties has made neutron imaging an attractive tool for a wide range

Surface Feature Characteristics of Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Nickel Super Alloy 625 Bulk Regions

June 1, 2022
Author(s)
Jason Fox, Romaine Isaacs, Aarush Sood, Paul Brackman, Brigid Mullany, Edward Morse, Angela Allen, Edson Santos, Christopher Evans
Coherence scanning interferometry (CSI) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) surface inspection of additively manufactured nickel super alloy 625 reveal features over a broad range of length scales beyond those typically reported. High resolution

Print Fidelity Metrics for Additive Manufacturing of Cement-based Materials

March 24, 2022
Author(s)
Edward Garboczi, Newell Moser, Joseph Biernacki, Hajar Afarani, Ebrahim Esfahani
Additively manufactured cement-based structures for infrastructure applications suffer from in-construction shape deformations, which are a strong function of process conditions and the rheology of the printing material (cement paste, mortar, or concrete)

Novel or Improved NDE Inspection Capabilities for Additively Manufactured Parts

February 26, 2022
Author(s)
Ward L. Johnson, Anne-Francoise Obaton, Alex Van den Bossch, Bryan Butsch, Imane Zouggarh, Olivier Burnet, Florent Soulard
Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the production of parts with extremely complex shapes, such as lattice structures and internal structures (cavities, channels). As a result of this geometric complexity, the applicability of most conventional

Laser Spot Welding of Additive Manufactured 304L Stainless Steel

February 1, 2022
Author(s)
Brian Simonds, Cheryl Hawk, Stephen Liu, Daniel Javernick, Robin Pacheco, Michael Brand, Jack R. Tanner, Greg Vigil
The goal of this work is to understand if an additively manufactured 304L stainless steel exhibited similar spot welding behavior as wrought 304L stainless steel. Due to the many differences between an additively manufactured component and wrought product

Interface History on Strain Field Evolution in Epoxy Resins

January 21, 2022
Author(s)
Edward Garboczi, Newell Moser, Jena McCollum, Jared Strutton, Abby Jennings, Brandon Runnels
To determine the viability of digital image correlation in the analysis of additively manufactured thermosets, we devised a testing method to examine the effect of interface history (i.e., time between interface formation and original material deposition)

The causal relationship between melt pool geometry and energy absorption measured in real time during laser-based manufacturing

December 16, 2021
Author(s)
Brian Simonds, Jack R. Tanner, Aly Artusio-Glimpse, Paul A. Williams, Niranjan Parab, Cang Zhao, Tao Sun
During laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing, a protean pool of molten metal governs a complex energy absorption process as it presents as either a highly reflective surface, a deeply absorbing cavity (a keyhole), or some amalgamation thereof. To

Sintered powder oxidation variation as a function of build height for titanium alloy produced by electron beam powder-bed fusion

November 26, 2021
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Alejandro Romero, Aldo Rubio, Cesar Terrazas, Francisco Medina, Ryan Wicker, Nik Hrabe
It is well-established that titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) powder oxidizes during electron beam powder-bed fusion (PBF-EB) due to the high background temperatures resulting from layer preheating and sintering of the powder bed before melting. However, it is

HYBRID MODELING OF MELT POOL GEOMETRY IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING USING NEURAL NETWORKS

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Kevontrez Jones, Zhuo Yang, Ho Yeung, Paul Witherell, Yan Lu
Laser powder-bed fusion is an additive manufacturing (AM) process that offers exciting advantages for the fabrication of metallic parts compared to traditional techniques, such as the ability to create complex geometries with less material waste. However

IN-PROCESS DATA FUSION FOR PROCESS MONITORING AND CONTROL OF METAL ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

November 17, 2021
Author(s)
Zhuo Yang, Yan Lu, Simin Li, Jennifer Li, Yande Ndiaye, Hui Yang, Sundar Krishnamurty
To accelerate the adoption of Metal Additive Manufacturing (MAM) for production, an understanding of MAM process-structure-property (PSP) relationships is indispensable for quality control. A multitude of physical phenomena involved in MAM necessitates the

Evaluation of a Modified Void Descriptor Function to Uniquely Characterize Pore Networks and Predict Fracture Location in Additively Manufactured Metals

November 15, 2021
Author(s)
Dillon Watring, Jake Benzing, Orion Kafka, Li-Anne Liew, Newell Moser, John Erickson, Nik Hrabe, Ashley Spear
Variations in additive manufacturing (AM) processing parameters can lead to variations in porosity, making it challenging to predict pore- or void-sensitive mechanical response in AM metals. A recently developed pore metric, the void descriptor function

Laser spot size and scaling laws for laser beam additive manufacturing

November 3, 2021
Author(s)
Jordan Weaver, Jarred C. Heigel, Brandon Lane
Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) additive manufacturing (AM) requires the careful selection of laser process parameters for each feedstock material and machine, which is a laborious process. Scaling laws based on the laser power, speed, and spot size; melt
