Thermal process modelling of lattice structures during selective laser melting process

As a type of powder-bed-based Additive Manufacturing (AM), Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is widely used for building metallic lattice structures. However, during SLM process, geometrical imperfections and defects, such as strut over-sizing or under-sizing, typically exist in components due to overheating, which strongly influence their...
