Ultra3DPrint Unlocking the potential of laser 3D printing with ultrasound

Summary

If successful, this project will be a milestone in the development of 3D printing of metals by laser-directed energy deposition. The purpose of this project is to establish a scientific understanding of laser 3D printing of metals under the influence of ultrasound. A full description of this process will ensure the consistent performance of printed products for critical applications. The applicant will combine cutting-edge in situ synchrotron x-ray imaging and modelling approaches to characterise the development of the melt pool. Expected outcomes are likely to provide production guidance on laser 3D printing of metals with defect-free, highly refined grain structures that can be used to produce high value-added products. This research fellowship will enable the applicant to become an independent research group leader in the field of laser 3D printing.
