Microstructural stability of materials processed by AM methods

Supervisor: prof. Ing. Libor Pantělejev, Ph.D.
Specialist: doc. Ing. Daniel Koutný, Ph.D.
Description:
Additive manufacturing technologies (AM) are in the focus of experts in materials processing area. These methods allow rapid prototyping of structural parts namely if conventional technologies are inconvenient or particular part cannot be produced in classical way. One of increasingly used methods for production of parts of high quality and low cost together with simple reproducibility is Selective Laser Melting method (SLM). For broader application of alloys produced by SLM technique it is necessary to know the connection between processing parameters, microstructure and mechanical properties. This relation should be addressed not only to static loading, but to dynamic and thermal loading (in combination with mechanical loading) as well. At the beginning of doctoral research it will be necessary to optimize processing parameters of studied materials in bulk with accent on minimal porosity and presence of defects. Microstructural and substructural changes as a response of investigated material to mechanical and thermal loading will be studied in the next phase of the research.
