Priming Additively Manufactured Cobalt-free Maraging Steels for Improved Properties via Changes to As-Built Microstructure

July 23, 2025
Author(s)
Alec Saville, Jake Benzing, Fan Zhang, Joseph Aroh, Jordan Weaver, Russell Evans, Nicholas Derimow, Samantha Webster, Nikolas Hrabe, Cassidy Allen, Newell Moser, May Martin, Jason Holm, Christin Aumayr, Tilman Seifert, Michael Hirtler
Supply chain challenges and health concerns have spurred the development of new Co-free, Cr-containing maraging steels with several new alloys already commercialized. These alloys are a less expensive and more sustainable form of the currently used Co

Microstructural Features and Metastable Phase Formation in a High-Strength Aluminum Alloy Fabricated Using Additive Manufacturing

April 25, 2025
Author(s)
Andrew Iams, Jordan Weaver, Brandon Lane, Lucille Giannuzzi, Feng Yi, Darby LaPlant, John Martin, Fan Zhang
Additive manufacturing (AM) has captured recent attention for its potential to fabricate high-strength aluminum alloy components. A detailed understanding of the microstructure under the as-fabricated conditions is required to harness its potential. We

Laser Beam Metrology for AM-Bench 2022: Approaches, Results, and Lessons Learned

April 1, 2025
Author(s)
David Deisenroth, Jordan Weaver, Sergey Mekhontsev, Steven Grantham, Shawn P. Moylan
One of key parameters of additive manufacturing by laser powder bed fusion of metal parts (PBF-LB/M) is the power density distribution (PDD) of the process laser beam. This paper describes the methods used to measure the beam PDD, discussing well

In-process monitoring and non-destructive evaluation for metal additive manufacturing processes

September 17, 2024
Author(s)
Alkan Donmez, Jason Fox, Felix Kim, Brandon Lane, Maxwell Praniewicz, Vipin Tondare, Jordan Weaver, Paul Witherell
The rapid pace of maturation of metal additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, makes them an excellent candidate for the fabrication of nuclear power plant (NPP) components. However, the current levels of process variations create numerous challenges yet

Cross-Sectional Melt Pool Geometry of Laser Scanned Tracks and Pads on Nickel Alloy 718 for the 2022 Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Challenges

May 7, 2024
Author(s)
Jordan Weaver, David Deisenroth, Sergey Mekhontsev, Brandon Lane, Lyle E. Levine, Ho Yeung
AM Bench is a NIST-led organization that provides a continuing series of additive manufacturing (AM) benchmark measurements, challenge problems, and conferences with the primary goal of enabling modelers to test their simulations against rigorous, highly

AM Bench 2022 Macroscale Tensile Challenge at Different Orientations (CHAL-AMB2022-04-MaTTO) and Summary of Predictions

January 16, 2024
Author(s)
Newell Moser, Jake Benzing, Orion Kafka, Jordan Weaver, Nicholas Derimow, Ross Rentz, Nik Hrabe
The additive manufacturing benchmarking challenge described in this work was aimed at the prediction of average stress–strain properties for tensile specimens that were excised from blocks of non-heat-treated IN625 manufactured by laser powder bed fusion

Micromechanical Properties of Spherical and Facetted He Bubble Loaded Copper

June 1, 2023
Author(s)
Osman El Atwani, Jonathan Gigax, Rodney McCabe, Demircan Canadinc, Matthew Chancey, Jordan Weaver
Exploring new irradiation resistant materials requires understanding their mechanical responses to irradiation. Resistance to helium bubble formation and understanding bubble effects on the mechanical response of candidate materials are crucial factors to

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

Inert Gas Flow Speed Measurements in Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing

October 19, 2021
Author(s)
Jordan Weaver, Alec Schlenoff, David Deisenroth, Shawn P. Moylan
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is an additive manufacturing technology that uses a laser to selectively melt powder feedstock to build parts in a layer-by-layer process. For metals-based LBPF additive manufacturing, the interaction of the laser and powder

Demonstration of a laser powder bed fusion combinatorial sample for high-throughput microstructure and indentation characterization

August 3, 2021
Author(s)
Jordan Weaver, Adam L. Pintar, Carlos R. Beauchamp, Howard Joress, Kil-Won Moon, Thien Q. Phan
High-throughput experiments that use combinatorial samples with rapid measurements can be used to provide process-structure-property information at reduced time, cost, and effort. Developing these tools and methods is essential in additive manufacturing
