| Abstract Scope |
We used ALE3D high-fidelity multi-physics model, which was verified with in-situ X-ray and other diagnostics experiments, to study laser-powder and laser-melt pool interactions at short time scales. We captured different modes of laser interactions that involve expulsion of spatter, shadowing and oscillations in absorptivity. We report on self-replicating spatter, that once formed, become hard to get rid of due to a self-replication mechanism that involves loose particles in the powder layer. We explain how pre-sintering the powder could be a strategy to mitigate this effect. Spatter beyond a size threshold can cause pores due to laser shadowing. We identified the laser scan strategy as one source of these large spatter sizes and derived a stability criterion to prevent them. This work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under contract DE- AC52-07NA27344. Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC.
