Effect of heat treatment on fatigue crack initiation of laser powder bed fusion stainless steel 316L

Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is an emerging additive manufacturing technique for building structural components. L-PBF processing defects, such as lack of fusion pores, promote fatigue crack initiation and shorten the fatigue life. With well-controlled processing, critical pores can be avoided su...
