Process Parameter Selection for Production of Stainless Steel 316L Using Efficient Multi-Objective Bayesian Optimization Algorithm.

Additive manufacturing is a modern technique to produce parts with a complex geometry. However, the choice of the printing parameters is a time-consuming and costly process. In this study, the parameter optimization for the laser powder bed fusion process was investigated.

The oxidation behavior of the CrFeCoNiAl (x = 0, 1.0, and 5.0 wt%) high-entropy alloy synthesized with Al elemental powder via powder bed fusion technique at high temperatures.

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are promoted as promising materials for various applications, including those dealing with high-temperatures. It requires understanding of the oxidation at different temperatures, especially for such a technological process as additive manufacturing (AM), which is able to produce unique structure. The present work evaluates the oxidation resistance of the CrFeCoNiAl HEAs produced by AM of the blends of CrFeCoNi and Al powders at temperatures of 800 and 1000 ℃.

Modification of Mechanical Properties in Directed Energy Deposition by a Static Magnetic Field: Experimental and Theoretical Analysis.

The superimposed magnetic field affects the microstructure and mechanical properties of additively manufactured metal parts. In this work, the samples were fabricated from Inconel 718 superalloy by directed energy deposition under a 0.2 T static field.

Hardening of Additive Manufactured 316L Stainless Steel by Using Bimodal Powder Containing Nanoscale Fraction.

The particle size distribution significantly affects the material properties of the additively manufactured parts. In this work, the influence of bimodal powder containing nano- and micro-scale particles on microstructure and materials properties is studied. Moreover, to study the effect of the protective atmosphere, the test samples were additively manufactured from 316L stainless steel powder in argon and nitrogen.
