报告摘要：Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, offers the ability to fabricate customized, complex parts traditionally unobtainable for a variety of applications However, the metallic AM introduces a melt pool with rapid thermal cycles that result in microstructures featured with anisotropy and porosity, thus deteriorating the mechanical properties of AM metallic builds. This presentation will discuss our research on how to manipulate and promote the microstructures and properties of AM fabricated metallic components, by a multiscale computational framework integrating experimental validation and data-driven approaches. In particular, I will present an “in-house” multiscale computational framework including macroscopic finite-element based manufacturing process modelling, mesoscopic phase-field modelling of microstructure evolution and design, and crystal plasticity calculation of material properties. The talk will also present our recent research on the integration of data-driven approaches (e.g., surrogate models) with physics-based computational and experimental methods to achieve the uncertainty quantification and robust design of metallic AM.
