Subproject C5

Mesoscopic modelling and simulation of properties of additively manufactured metallic parts

Basing on the gained knowledge of projects B4 and C5, the aim of this project is to account for the influence of part borders on the resulting material/part-mesostructure for powder- and beam-based additive manufacturing technologies of metals and to model the resulting meso- and macroscopic mechanical properties. The mechanical behavior of these mesostructures and the influence of the inevitable process-based geometrical uncertainties is modelled, verified, quantified and validated es-pecially for cellular grid-based structures.
