| Abstract Scope |
Metal additive manufacturing methods, such as laser powder bed fusion, produce novel microstructures due to the highly localized epitaxial growth resultant from the high thermal gradients and solidification front velocities. There is a need to simulate the solidification and evolution of these microstructures based on chosen process parameters, inclusive of both grain morphology and crystallographic texture, to feed forward into micromechanical models. Also of particular interest are models that are extendable to multiple materials systems with minimal calibration needed apart from changing material properties. We discuss results from models used to predict these microstructures at two ends of the computational cost spectrum and compare the aerospace alloys (nickel) 718 and Ti-6Al-4V. The two models are compared with respect to cost, the complexity of calibration to new materials, and results relative to experimental ground truth. |
