These porosity defects are dependent upon the melt pool geometry and the processing conditions. Power-velocity (PV) processing maps can aid in visualizing the effects of LPBF processing variables and mapping different defect regimes such as lack-of-fusion, under-melting, balling, and keyholing. This work presents an assessment of existing analytical equations and models that provide an estimate of the melt pool geometry as a function of material properties. The melt pool equations are then combined with defect criteria to provide a quick approximation of the PV processing maps for a variety of materials. Finally, the predictions of these processing maps are compared with experimental data from the literature. The predictive processing maps can be computed quickly and can be coupled with dimensionless numbers and high-throughput (HT) experiments for validation. The present work provides a boundary framework for designing the optimal processing parameters for new metals and alloys based on existing analytical solutions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":295,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Solid State & Materials Science","volume":"26 6","pages":"Article 101024"},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92069507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, if exposed to hydrogen sources, these alloys are susceptible to hydride formation in the form of TiH<sub>x</sub> (0 < x ≤ 2), leading to crack initiation and mechanical failure due to lattice deformation and stress accumulation. The kinetics of the hydriding process depends on several factors, including the critical saturation threshold for hydrogen within Ti, the specific interaction of hydrogen with protective surface oxide, the rates of mass transport, and the kinetics of nucleation and phase transformation. Unfortunately, key knowledge gaps and challenges remain regarding the details of these coupled processes, which take place across vast ranges of time and length scales and are often difficult to probe directly. This work reviews recent advances in multiscale characterization and modeling efforts in Ti hydriding. We identify unanswered questions and key challenges, propose new perspectives on how to solve these remaining issues, and close knowledge gaps by discussing and demonstrating specific opportunities for integrating advanced characterization and multiscale modeling to elucidate chemistry and composition, microstructure phenomena, and macroscale performance and testing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":295,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Solid State & Materials Science","volume":"26 6","pages":"Article 101020"},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1359028622000407/pdfft?md5=f5859dcfb7978fbedb39fd37670bf6a8&pid=1-s2.0-S1359028622000407-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92069505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the advances in particle fabrication techniques, our library of available anisotropic building blocks has expanded enormously, which opens up new opportunities for studying the shape-structure relation. There have been extensive studies performed to explore the self-assembly of anisotropic building blocks and tremendous progress has been made. In this mini-review, we will report recent progress on the self-assembly of non-spherical colloids both in experiments and in simulations. We focus on the self-assembly of polygonal platelets with a variety of shapes in two dimensions including regular polygonal shapes and a specific type of shape, kite-shape.
