| Abstract Scope |
One additive manufacturing benchmarking challenge in 2025 focused on fatigue properties of vertically oriented Ti-6Al-4V parts produced by laser powder bed fusion. Specimens underwent one of two heat treatments: 1) 800HIP: hot isostatic pressing (HIP) at 800 °C for 2 h with an argon pressure of 200 MPa and a 12 °C/min cooling rate or 2) 800VAC: the same heat treatment parameters, but using a vacuum furnace with a 75 mTorr pressure of argon. The treated, machined, and polished specimens were tested with a rotating bending fatigue machine (R = -1). Calibration data was provided in a public data repository (https://doi.org/10.18434/mds2-3734) and included 800HIP stress-cycles data, plus the following for both 800HIP and 800VAC: solid chemistry, AM parameters, tensile properties, 2-dimensional EBSD maps, plus pore size and 3-dimensional distributions via X-ray computed tomography. Requested predictions included the median S-N curve for 800VAC and the crack-initiation locations of specific specimens. |
