Spreading Process Maps for Powder-Bed Additive Manufacturing Derived from Physics Model-Based Machine Learning

The powder bed additive manufacturing (AM) process is comprised of two repetitive steps—spreading of powder and selective fusing or binding the spread layer. The spreading step consists of a rolling and sliding spreader which imposes a shear flow and normal stress on an AM powder between i...
