| Abstract Scope |
Crystallographic orientations are critical in determining material properties among all microstructure representations due to their influence on anisotropy, void growth, coalescence behaviors, etc, in LPBF. This paper first developed a physics-based analytical model to predict the multi-phase materials texture related to the 3D temperature distribution, considering heat transfer boundary conditions, heat input using point-moving heat source solution, and heat loss due to heat conduction, convection, and radiation. This study offers a quick and more precise way of analyzing texture prediction in multi-phase mode for metallic materials. It lays the groundwork for future research on microstructure-affected or texture-affected materials' properties in academic and industrial settings. This study initially employs a computational approach to generate a singular BCC beta phase texture based on thermal history to represent the liquidus materials of Ti-6Al-4V during the melting process. |
