Abstract Scope |
Additive manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a unique method for producing highly specialized metal alloys and composites. The high cooling rates afforded by AM are particularly useful in the creation of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs), BMG composites, and BMG/crystalline alloys. This talk will focus on some of the AM techniques that have been used on BMGs, including laser foil printing, ultrasonic additive manufacturing, directed energy deposition, laser powder bed printing, fused filament fabrication and thermal spray additive manufacturing. Special attention will be paid to feedstock material, porosity, and thermal history of the printed BMG and how those affect properties. |
