Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing offers many possible advantages, including the possibility of making a single metallic component from different materials as a single piece, eliminating assembly steps. While feasible, there are many issues that stand in the way of achieving such a fabrication possibility, such as deleterious reaction products, residual stresses, and defects. This talk will discuss the significant barriers to accomplishing wide spread fabrication of multimaterial components. In addition solutions, both in terms of design strategies and equipment design, will be discussed. |
