Ti3Al2V alloy was prepared by mixing commercially pure titanium and Ti6Al4V in 1:1 wt. ratio. Laser powder bed fusion-based additive manufacturing technique was used to fabricate the samples. Tensile tests resulted in an ultimate strength of 989 ± 8 MPa for Ti3Al2V. Ti6Al4V 90° orientation samples showed a compressive yield strength of 1178 ± 33 MPa and that for Ti3Al2V 90° orientation samples were 968 ± 24 MPa. By varying the build orientation to account for anisotropy, Ti32 45° and Ti32 0° samples displayed almost similar compressive yield strength values of 1071 ± 16 and 1051 ± 18 MPa, respectively, which were higher than that of Ti32 90° sample. Fatigue loading revealed an endurance limit (10 million cycles) of 250 MPa for Ti6Al4V and of 219 MPa for Ti3Al2V built at 90° orientation. The effect of the build orientation was significant under fatigue loading; Ti3Al2V built at 45° and 0° orientations displayed endurance limits of 387.5 MPa and 512 MPa, respectively; more than two-fold increment in endurance limit was observed. In conclusion, the superior attributes of Ti3Al2V alloy over Ti6Al4V alloy, as demonstrated in this study, justify its potential in load-bearing applications, particularly for use in orthopedic devices.","PeriodicalId":473329,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science in Additive Manufacturing","volume":"101-102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135536677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The elastic property of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) sheet-based gyroid lattice structures was explored. We also conducted numerical analysis to investigate the effect of functionally graded sheet-based gyroid lattices on the implant application, and explored the elastic properties of the uniform gyroid lattice parametrically with different relative densities based on the representative volume element model. Analytical equations based on the Gibson-Ashby model were generated to predict the elastic properties. Compressive tests on the samples fabricated by the Stratasys J750 were conducted to validate the feasibility of applying hybridization of different types of lattices. A comparison between radial hybrid primitive-gyroid and gyroid-primitive lattices revealed that the compressive behavior of gyroid-primitive was strengthened. We also found that the gyroid-primitive lattice could achieve auxetic compressive behavior. In conclusion, the numerical analysis illustrates that the application of the functional graded gyroid lattices can relieve the stress shielding effect as well as protects the bone from damage. The hybridization of different lattices can not only strengthen the mechanical properties of TPMS structures but also create a counter-intuitive deformation response.","PeriodicalId":473329,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science in Additive Manufacturing","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135579291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we propose an integrated Cf/SiC preparation and processing process. The continuous carbon fiber-reinforced resin matrix composite green parts were processed by fused filament fabrication, and then ceramicized by precursor infiltration pyrolysis process. The processing parameters of the green parts, the performance of the green-part specimens, the phase evolution in the post treatment, and the performance of Cf/SiC samples were investigated. The infill line distance (ILD) had a huge influence on the mechanical properties of green parts and Cf/SiC. The bending strength of the green parts and the Cf/SiC specimens increased with the decrease in ILD. The maximum bending strength of 169.48 MPa and 155.83 MPa was achieved for the carbon fiber/polyethylene terephthalate glycol (Cf/PETG) and polylactic acid (Cf/PLA) green parts, respectively. The highest bending strength of 47.73 MPa of the Cf/SiC material was obtained with the Cf/PLA green parts, while the bending strength of 93.79 MPa was obtained for the Cf/SiC with Cf/PETG green parts. The increase in mechanical properties was believed to result from the pyrolyzed carbon brought by PETG and the increase of the equivalent fiber density within the single layer after a larger nozzle size was used.","PeriodicalId":473329,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science in Additive Manufacturing","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135579566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, existing studies only consider the impact of individual factors on the fiber orientation, either boundary impacts or flow field impacts. This work aims to study fiber orientation by considering the combined impact of these two factors. Analytical models were first constructed, which revealed that when the flow of material is negligible, fiber orientation is impacted by the boundary conditions. When the flow field is non-negligible, fiber orientation is affected by the direction of flow streamlines. Specimens were then prepared using fluorescence image processing and μ-computed tomography scanning for fiber orientation analysis. The results indicate that fiber orientation could be controlled by varying boundary constraints and flow fields. Mechanical results reveal that when the designed condition achieves directional-orientated fibers, the mechanical property of specimens could be enhanced with the applied stress direction being the same as the fiber orientation. This work provides a novel insight to tailor fiber-reinforced cementitious material properties by designing the boundary constraints and flow fields in the cast and printing processes.","PeriodicalId":473329,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science in Additive Manufacturing","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136098791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, the development of this technology has been accompanied by a constant search for materials suitable for it. These materials play important roles in the industry, have excellent properties but are difficult to process using traditional manufacturing methods, or are newly developed materials specifically for AM. While these explorations are being undertaken, attention to standards in the field will ensure that research is accelerated and on the right track. This paper presents each of the seven technique categories of AM. The focus of this paper is on the emerging materials for AM, such as polyetheretherketone, polyimide, high entropy alloys, and composites. Finally, international standards in the field of AM with perspectives on research in this area are also presented.","PeriodicalId":473329,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science in Additive Manufacturing","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135108053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
