| Abstract Scope |
Significant recent research has successfully demonstrated that additive manufacturing techniques may be used to process electrical steels, including high-Si compositions that are challenging to process via conventional deformation-based processes. These advances have the potential to enable the design and fabrication of novel electromechanical devices that utilize the geometric freedom of AM processing. However, the geometry of a component is intimately linked with the process behavior, thermal conditions, microstructure, and ultimately, the resulting properties and performance of the printed component. This work will provide several examples of the linkages between process, microstructure, and properties for additively manufactured electrical steels. Based on this research, several opportunities for controlling microstructure and properties to produce next-generation electromechanical machines will be explored. |
