Gaseous hydrogen embrittlement of 3D-printed Inconel 718 manufactured from sustainable feedstock

Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technology that has been gaining a lot of interest as it allows to produce parts with complex geometries and eliminate expensive tooling. Unlike the conventional manufacturing processes where material is removed to make the final component; AM part is manufactured layer-wise as...

Effect of Heat Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Additively Manufactured Nitinol Shape Memory Alloys

Nitinol shape memory alloys (SMAs) have a unique combination of shape memory capability, making it an attractive material for various engineering and biomedical applications. Additive manufacturing (AM) by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) allows to produce Nitinol net shape parts, which broadens its applications. Due to the high heating and...
