Purpose Fiber reinforced additive manufacturing (FRAM) is an emerging technology that combines additive manufacturing and composite materials. As a result, design freedom offered by the manufacturing process can be leveraged in design optimization. The purpose of the study is to propose a novel method that improves structural performance by optimizing 3D print orientation of FRAM components. Design/methodology/approach This work proposes a two-part design optimization method that optimizes 3D global print orientation and topology of a component to improve a structural objective function. The method considers two classes of design variables: (1) print orientation design variables and (2) density-based topology design variables. Print orientation design variables determine a unique 3D print orientation to influence anisotropic material properties. Topology optimization determines an optimal distribution of material within the optimized print orientation. Findings Two academic examples are used to demonstrate basic behavior of the method in tension and shear. Print orientation and sequential topology optimization improve structural compliance by 90% and 58%, respectively. An industry-level example, an aerospace component, is optimized. The proposed method is used to achieve an 11% and 15% reduction of structural compliance compared to alternative FRAM designs. In addition, compliance is reduced by 43% compared to an equal-mass aluminum design. Originality/value Current research surrounding FRAM focuses on the manufacturing process and neglects opportunities to leverage design freedom provided by FRAM. Previous FRAM optimization methods only optimize fiber orientation within a 2D plane and do not establish an optimized 3D print orientation, neglecting exploration of the entire orientation design space.
目的 纤维增强增材制造(FRAM)是一项新兴技术,它将增材制造与复合材料相结合。因此,制造工艺提供的设计自由度可用于优化设计。本研究旨在提出一种新方法,通过优化 FRAM 组件的 3D 打印方向来提高结构性能。 设计/方法/途径 这项工作提出了一种由两部分组成的设计优化方法,可优化部件的三维全局打印方向和拓扑结构,以改善结构目标函数。该方法考虑了两类设计变量:(1) 打印方向设计变量和 (2) 基于密度的拓扑设计变量。打印方向设计变量确定独特的三维打印方向,以影响各向异性的材料特性。拓扑优化决定了材料在优化打印方向上的最佳分布。 研究结果 通过两个学术范例展示了该方法在拉伸和剪切时的基本行为。打印方向和顺序拓扑优化分别将结构顺应性提高了 90% 和 58%。优化了一个工业级实例,即一个航空航天部件。与其他 FRAM 设计相比,所提出的方法使结构顺应性分别降低了 11% 和 15%。此外,与等质量铝设计相比,结构顺应性降低了 43%。 原创性/价值 目前围绕 FRAM 的研究主要集中在制造工艺上,忽略了利用 FRAM 提供的设计自由度的机会。以前的 FRAM 优化方法只能优化二维平面内的纤维取向,不能建立优化的三维打印取向,从而忽略了对整个取向设计空间的探索。

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the influence of scan speed on the corrosion and tribocorrosion features of the CoCrMoW samples fabricated via the selective laser melting (SLM) process. Design/methodology/approach CoCrMoW samples were produced by SLM at different scan speeds. Produced samples were made via structural surveys (X-ray diffraction examinations and scanning electron microscopic analyses), hardness measurements and electrochemical and tribocorrosion experiments. Findings Outcomes displayed that the corrosion and tribocorrosion properties of CoCrMoW alloy were significantly influenced by scanning speeds. Also, these properties of the alloy increased with increasing scanning speeds. CoCrMoW samples produced at a laser scan speed of 1,000 mm/s showed the best resistance to corrosion and tribocorrosion. This could be related to the high hardness and low grain structure of the fabricated samples. Originality/value This paper may be a practical reference and offers insight into the effect of scanning speeds on the increase of hardness, tribological and corrosion performance of CoCrMoW alloys. This study can help in the further advancement of cobalt-chromium alloy in situ produced by SLM for both electrochemical and tribocorrosion behavior for biomedical applications.
目的 本文旨在研究扫描速度对通过选择性激光熔化(SLM)工艺制作的 CoCrMoW 样品的腐蚀和摩擦腐蚀特征的影响。 设计/方法/途径 通过 SLM 以不同的扫描速度制作 CoCrMoW 样品。对制作的样品进行了结构调查(X 射线衍射检查和扫描电子显微镜分析)、硬度测量以及电化学和摩擦腐蚀实验。 研究结果表明,CoCrMoW 合金的腐蚀和摩擦腐蚀特性受到扫描速度的显著影响。而且,随着扫描速度的增加,合金的这些特性也会增加。以 1,000 mm/s 的激光扫描速度制作的 CoCrMoW 样品显示出最佳的耐腐蚀性和耐摩擦腐蚀性。这可能与所制造样品的高硬度和低晶粒结构有关。 独创性/价值 本文可作为实用参考文献,有助于深入了解扫描速度对 CoCrMoW 合金硬度、摩擦学和腐蚀性能提高的影响。这项研究有助于进一步提高 SLM 原位生产的钴铬合金在生物医学应用中的电化学和摩擦腐蚀性能。

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to assess the feasibility of analytical models, specifically the radial basis function method, Akbari–Ganji method and Gaussian method, in conjunction with the finite element method. The aim is to examine the impact of processing parameters on temperature history.Design/methodology/approachThrough analytical investigation and finite element simulation, this research examines the influence of processing parameters on temperature history. Simufact software with a thermomechanical approach was used for finite element simulation, while radial basis function, Akbari–Ganji and Gaussian methods were used for analytical modeling to solve the heat transfer differential equation.FindingsThe accuracy of both finite element and analytical methods was validated with about 90%. The findings revealed direct relationships between thermal conductivity (from 100 to 200), laser power (from 400 to 800 W), heat source depth (from 0.35 to 0.75) and power absorption coefficient (from 0.4 to 0.8). Increasing the values of these parameters led to higher temperature history. On the other hand, density (from 7,600 to 8,200), emission coefficient (from 0.5 to 0.7) and convective heat transfer (from 35 to 90) exhibited an inverse relationship with temperature history.Originality/valueThe application of analytical modeling, particularly the utilization of the Akbari–Ganji, radial basis functions and Gaussian methods, showcases an innovative approach to studying directed energy deposition. This analytical investigation offers an alternative to relying solely on experimental procedures, potentially saving time and resources in the optimization of DED processes.

PurposeThis study aims to propose and evaluate the progress in the basic-pixel (a strategy to generate continuous trajectories that fill out the entire surface) algorithm towards performance gain. The objective is also to investigate the operational efficiency and effectiveness of an enhanced version compared with conventional strategies.Design/methodology/approachFor the first objective, the proposed methodology is to apply the improvements proposed in the basic-pixel strategy, test it on three demonstrative parts and statistically evaluate the performance using the distance trajectory criterion. For the second objective, the enhanced-pixel strategy is compared with conventional strategies in terms of trajectory distance, build time and the number of arcs starts and stops (operational efficiency) and targeting the nominal geometry of a part (operational effectiveness).FindingsThe results showed that the improvements proposed to the basic-pixel strategy could generate continuous trajectories with shorter distances and comparable building times (operational efficiency). Regarding operational effectiveness, the parts built by the enhanced-pixel strategy presented lower dimensional deviation than the other strategies studied. Therefore, the enhanced-pixel strategy appears to be a good candidate for building more complex printable parts and delivering operational efficiency and effectiveness.Originality/valueThis paper presents an evolution of the basic-pixel strategy (a space-filling strategy) with the introduction of new elements in the algorithm and proves the improvement of the strategy’s performance with this. An interesting comparison is also presented in terms of operational efficiency and effectiveness between the enhanced-pixel strategy and conventional strategies.

PurposeCurrent methods for the preparation of composite powder feedstock for selective laser melting (SLM) rely on costly nanoparticles or yield inconsistent powder morphology. This study aims to develop a cost-effective Ti6Al4V-carbon feedstock, which preserves the parent Ti6Al4V particle’s flowability, and produces in situ TiC-reinforced Ti6Al4V composites with superior traits.Design/methodology/approachTi6Al4V particles were directly mixed with graphite flakes in a planetary ball mill. This composite powder feedstock was used to manufacture in situ TiC-Ti6Al4V composites using various energy densities. Relative porosity, microstructure and hardness of the composites were evaluated for different SLM processing parameters.FindingsHomogeneously carbon-coated Ti6Al4V particles were produced by direct mixing. After SLM processing, in situ grown 100–500 nm size TiC nanoparticles were distributed within the α-martensite Ti6Al4V matrix. The formation of TiC particles refines the Ti6Al4V β grain size. Relative density varied between 96.4% and 99.5% depending on the processing parameters. Hatch distance, exposure time and point distance were all effective on relative porosity change, whereas only exposure time and point distance were effective on hardness change.Originality/valueThis work introduces a novel, cost-effective powder feedstock preparation method for SLM manufacture of Ti6Al4V-TiC composites. The in situ SLM composites achieved in this study have high relative density values, well-dispersed TiC nanoparticles and increased hardness. In addition, the feedstock preparation method can be readily adapted for various matrix and reinforcement materials in future studies.
目的目前用于制备选择性激光熔融 (SLM) 复合粉末原料的方法依赖于成本高昂的纳米颗粒或产生不一致的粉末形态。本研究旨在开发一种具有成本效益的 Ti6Al4V-碳原料,它能保持母体 Ti6Al4V 颗粒的流动性,并生产出具有优异特性的原位 TiC 增强 Ti6Al4V 复合材料。这种复合粉末原料被用于利用各种能量密度制造原位 TiC-Ti6Al4V 复合材料。针对不同的 SLM 加工参数,对复合材料的相对孔隙率、微观结构和硬度进行了评估。经过 SLM 加工后,原位生长的 100-500 nm 尺寸的 TiC 纳米颗粒分布在 α-马氏体 Ti6Al4V 基体中。TiC 颗粒的形成细化了 Ti6Al4V β 晶粒尺寸。根据加工参数的不同,相对密度在 96.4% 到 99.5% 之间变化。孵化距离、曝光时间和点距离都对相对孔隙率变化有效,而只有曝光时间和点距离对硬度变化有效。本研究获得的原位 SLM 复合材料具有较高的相对密度值、分散良好的 TiC 纳米颗粒和更高的硬度。此外,在未来的研究中,该原料制备方法还可适用于各种基体和增强材料。

PurposePorosity is a commonly analyzed defect in the laser-based additive manufacturing processes owing to the enormous thermal gradient caused by repeated melting and solidification. Currently, the porosity estimation is limited to powder bed fusion. The porosity estimation needs to be explored in the laser melting deposition (LMD) process, particularly analytical models that provide cost- and time-effective solutions compared to finite element analysis. For this purpose, this study aims to formulate two mathematical models for deposited layer dimensions and corresponding porosity in the LMD process.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, analytical models have been proposed. Initially, deposited layer dimensions, including layer height, width and depth, were calculated based on the operating parameters. These outputs were introduced in the second model to estimate the part porosity. The models were validated with experimental data for Ti6Al4V depositions on Ti6Al4V substrate. A calibration curve (CC) was also developed for Ti6Al4V material and characterized using X-ray computed tomography. The models were also validated with the experimental results adopted from literature. The validated models were linked with the deep neural network (DNN) for its training and testing using a total of 6,703 computations with 1,500 iterations. Here, laser power, laser scanning speed and powder feeding rate were selected inputs, whereas porosity was set as an output.FindingsThe computations indicate that owing to the simultaneous inclusion of powder particulates, the powder elements use a substantial percentage of the laser beam energy for their melting, resulting in laser beam energy attenuation and reducing thermal value at the substrate. The primary operating parameters are directly correlated with the number of layers and total height in CC. Through X-ray computed tomography analyses, the number of layers showed a straightforward correlation with mean sphericity, while a converse relation was identified with the number, mean volume and mean diameter of pores. DNN and analytical models showed 2%–3% and 7%–9% mean absolute deviations, respectively, compared to the experimental results.Originality/valueThis research provides a unique solution for LMD porosity estimation by linking the developed analytical computational models with artificial neural networking. The presented framework predicts the porosity in the LMD-ed parts efficiently.
目的由于反复熔化和凝固造成的巨大热梯度,气孔是激光增材制造工艺中常见的缺陷。目前,孔隙率估算仅限于粉末床熔融。在激光熔融沉积(LMD)过程中,需要对孔隙率估算进行探索,特别是与有限元分析相比,分析模型能提供成本和时间效益高的解决方案。为此,本研究旨在为激光熔融沉积过程中的沉积层尺寸和相应的孔隙率制定两个数学模型。首先,根据操作参数计算沉积层尺寸,包括层高、宽度和深度。这些输出结果被引入第二个模型,以估算零件的孔隙率。这些模型与 Ti6Al4V 基底上 Ti6Al4V 沉积的实验数据进行了验证。还为 Ti6Al4V 材料开发了校准曲线 (CC),并使用 X 射线计算机断层扫描进行了表征。模型还与文献中采用的实验结果进行了验证。经过验证的模型与深度神经网络(DNN)相连接,通过 1,500 次迭代共 6,703 次计算对其进行训练和测试。计算结果表明,由于同时加入了粉末颗粒,粉末元素在熔化过程中消耗了很大比例的激光束能量,导致激光束能量衰减,降低了基底的热值。主要运行参数与 CC 的层数和总高度直接相关。通过 X 射线计算机断层扫描分析,层数与平均球度直接相关,而与孔的数量、平均体积和平均直径的关系则相反。与实验结果相比,DNN 和分析模型分别显示出 2%-3% 和 7%-9% 的平均绝对偏差。 原创性/价值 这项研究通过将开发的分析计算模型与人工神经网络联系起来,为 LMD 孔隙度估算提供了独特的解决方案。所提出的框架可有效预测 LMD 零件中的孔隙率。

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to determine the material extrusion (MEX) printability envelope of a new kind of low-viscosity powder-binder feedstocks using rheological properties.Design/methodology/approachFormulation of 13 feedstocks (variation of solid loading 60–67 Vol.% and thickening agent proportion 3–15 Vol.%) that were characterized and printed at different temperatures.FindingsThree rheological models were successfully used to define the viscosity envelope, producing stable and defect-free printing. At a shear deformation rate experienced by the feedstock in the nozzle ranging from 100 to 300 s–1, it was confirmed that metal injection molding (MIM) feedstocks exhibiting a low viscosity between 100 and 150 Pa s could be printed using an extrusion temperature as low as 85 °C.Practical implicationsMEX can be used in synergy with MIM to accelerate mold development for a new injected part or simply as a replacement for MIM when the cost of the mold becomes too high for very small production volumes.Originality/valueCorrelation between the rheological properties of this new generation of low-viscosity feedstocks and MEX printability has been demonstrated for the first time.

PurposeA main cause of defects within material extrusion (MatEx) additive manufacturing is the nonisothermal condition in the hot end, which causes inconsistent extrusion and polymer welding. This paper aims to validate a custom hot end design intended to heat the thermoplastic to form a melt prior to the nozzle and to reduce variability in melt temperature. A full 3D temperature verification methodology for hot ends is also presented.Design/methodology/approachInfrared (IR) thermography of steady-state extrusion for varying volumetric flow rates, hot end temperature setpoints and nozzle orifice diameters provides data for model validation. A finite-element model is used to predict the temperature of the extrudate. Model tuning demonstrates the effects of different model assumptions on the simulated melt temperature.FindingsThe experimental results show that the measured temperature and variance are functions of volumetric flow rate, temperature setpoint and the nozzle orifice diameter. Convection to the surrounding air is a primary heat transfer mechanism. The custom hot end brings the melt to its setpoint temperature prior to entering the nozzle.Originality/valueThis work provides a full set of steady-state IR thermography data for various parameter settings. It also provides insight into the performance of a custom hot end designed to improve the robustness of melting in MatEx. Finally, it proposes a strategy for modeling such systems that incorporates the metal components and the air around the system.
材料挤压(MatEx)增材制造中缺陷的主要原因是热端非等温条件,导致挤压和聚合物焊接不一致。本文旨在验证一种定制的热端设计,该设计旨在加热热塑性塑料,使其在喷嘴之前形成熔体,并减少熔体温度的变化。还提出了热端完整的三维温度验证方法。设计/方法/方法不同体积流量、热端温度设定值和喷嘴孔直径的稳态挤出红外(IR)热成像为模型验证提供了数据。采用有限元模型对挤出物的温度进行了预测。模型调整说明了不同的模型假设对模拟熔体温度的影响。实验结果表明,测得的温度和方差是体积流量、温度设定值和喷嘴孔径的函数。对周围空气的对流是主要的传热机制。自定义热端使熔体在进入喷嘴之前达到其设定点温度。独创性/价值这项工作为各种参数设置提供了一套完整的稳态红外热成像数据。它还提供了对定制热端性能的洞察,旨在提高MatEx熔化的稳稳性。最后,本文提出了一种将金属部件和系统周围空气结合在一起的系统建模策略。
