Despite enormous progress in Laser Aided Direct Metal/Material Deposition (DMD) process many issues concerning the adverse effects of process parameters on the stability of variety of properties and the integrity of microstructure have been reported. Delaminating at substrate-deposition interface and cracking between deposited layers are some of these crucial issues that occur due to excessive stress build-up. Significantly high heating and cooling rates a...$28.00

This paper presents a mathematical model of laser powder deposition to predict the dilution. The model validated by experiments is developed using the moving heat source method. In this method, the temperature distribution inside the clad and the substrate is obtained using the superposition principle and the solution of the heat diffusion due to a point heat source. The model predic...$28.00

A three-dimensional finite element thermo-kinetic model was used to study phase transformations in laser melting and laser powder deposition of grade II commercially pure titanium. The model was validated for the case of surface treatment, by matching experimental and modeling results, namely on the location of melting and allotropic transformation isotherms for a range of processing parameters, allowin...$28.00

The evolution of temperature and velocity fields during direct metal deposition with coaxial powder injection is simulated using a comprehensive three dimensional model, based on the solution of the equations of mass, momentum, energy conservation and solute transport in the liquid pool. The basic physical phenomena, including heat transfer, phase changes, mass addition, fluid flow and interactions between the laser beam and the coaxial powder flow are considered in the model...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2006
This paper presents a 3D transient finite element model of laser solid freeform fabrication (LSFF) process. The proposed model determines the thermal distribution throughout the workpiece as a function of time and process parameters including laser power, traverse speed, and material properties. Based on the thermal analysis, the clad formation is then predicted. In the proposed method, the thermal domain is numerically obtained, assuming th...$28.00

In the plastic industry the cycle time for the injection of each piece is fundamental for the profitability of the process. One method to reduce the injection time is to manufacture the moulds with a copper-beryllium (Cu-Be) alloy, providing a unique combination of thermal conductivity (i.e. shorter cycle tim...$28.00

Steel dies often fail prematurely due to metal-fatigue cracking, corrosion, erosion, oxidation, heat checking and soldering, when the dies are exposed to molten metals while operating under cyclic-mechanical stresses, thermal loading, chemical corrosion and thermal fatigue. The objective of this work is to find an "optimal" mold material composition for use in the die casting industry using a direct material deposition process (DMD). DMD is a laser based additive fab...$28.00

Texturing of molds is a normal technique to give plastic products a surface shape which replicates the appearance of leather, wood or similar. Often the decorative features have been done by EDM processing or photochemical etching; both processes which present problems in production times and flexibility. EDM processing requires a numerous set of machined erosion electrodes. Changes to the geometrie...$28.00
