Fatigue behavior and microstructure of direct laser deposited Inconel 718 alloy

<p>Inconel 718 is a nickel-based superalloy with a series of superior properties, such as high strength, creep-resistance, and corrosion-resistance. Additive manufacturing (AM) is appealing to Inconel 718 because of its near-net-shape production capability to circumvent poor machinability. How...
