| Abstract Scope |
AM Bench is a series of additive manufacturing (AM) benchmark measurements and challenge problems that enable modelers to test their simulations against benchmark data. For the macroscale quasi-static tensile challenge, we requested prediction of uniaxial tensile properties of as-built IN718, having provided 3D microstructural information. This talk will discuss the outcomes of the model predictions provided in response to our challenge after reviewing some details of the challenge formulation. We expect to review the different models applied to our challenge. We compare each proposed modeling result to experimental ground truth “answers,” which were withheld from modelers. We will also analyze the results provided comparatively to explore the relative strengths and weaknesses of the models. Limitations and gaps identified by the challenge will be debriefed. Finally, we will consider innovations for the next round of benchmark challenges, with audience input. |
