Synopsis

A Focus on SLM and SLS Methods in 3D Printing is an indispensable collection of articles for anyone involved in additive manufacturing - from academics and researchers through to engineers and managers within the manufacturing industry. The collection features examples of innovative research involving selective laser melting and selective laser sintering techniques applied across a range of contexts.

About this title

Review

This volume collects 10 articles (previously published in Emerald journals between 2010 and 2012) on selective laser melting (SLM) and selective laser sintering (SLS) methods in additive manufacturing. They address the change in the mechanical properties, focusing on ductility, of a biomedical Ti-6Al-4V alloy produced by selective laser melting; the influence of laser re-melting on the density, surface quality, and microstructure of selective laser melting parts; the effect of selective laser melting layout on the quality of stainless steel parts; the effect of processing parameters on characteristics of selective laser sintering dental glass-ceramic powder; the modeling of a powder particle heat transfer process in selective laser sintering for fabricating tissue engineering scaffolds; and the design, fabrication, and evaluation of negative stiffness elements using selective laser sintering. Others address factor analysis of selective laser melting process parameters and geometrical characteristics of synthesized single tracks; isostatic processing assisted indirect selective laser sintering of alumina components; selective laser melting of Inconel 625 using pulse shaping; and multi-objective optimization and multi-criteria decision making in selective laser sintering using evolutionary approaches.
