Among metal additive manufacturing technologies, powder-bed fusion features very thin layers and rapid solidification rates, leading to long build jobs and a highly localized process. Many efforts are being devoted to accelerate simulation times for practical industrial applications. The new approach suggested here, the virtual domain approximation, is a physics-based rationale for spatial reduction of the domain in the thermal finite-element analysis at the part scale. Computational experiments address, among others, validation against a large physical experiment of 17.5 $mathrm{[cm^3]}$ of deposited volume in 647 layers. For fast and automatic parameter estimation at such level of complexity, a high-performance computing framework is employed. It couples FEMPAR-AM, a specialized parallel finite-element software, with Dakota, for the parametric exploration. Compared to previous state-of-the-art, this formulation provides higher accuracy at the same computational cost. This sets the path to a fully virtualized model, considering an upwards-moving domain covering the last printed layers.

Quality control in additive manufacturing can be achieved through variation control of the quantity of interest (QoI). We choose in this work the microstructural microsegregation to be our QoI. Microsegregation results from the spatial redistribution
of a solute element across the solid-liquid interface that forms during solidification of an alloy melt pool during the laser powder bed fusion process. Since the process as well as the alloy parameters contribute to the statistical variation in microstructural features, uncertainty analysis of the QoI is essential. High-throughput phase-field simulations estimate the solid-liquid interfaces that grow for the melt pool solidification conditions that were estimated from finite element simulations. Microsegregation was determined from the simulated interfaces for different process and alloy parameters. Correlation, regression, and surrogate model analyses were used to quantify the contribution of different sources of uncertainty to the QoI variability. We found negligible contributions of thermal gradient and Gibbs-Thomson coefficient and considerable contributions of solidification velocity, liquid diffusivity, and segregation coefficient on the QoI. Cumulative distribution functions and probability density functions were used to analyze the distribution of the QoI during solidification. Our approach, for the first time, identifies the uncertainty sources and frequency densities of the QoI in the solidification regime relevant to additive manufacturing.
Powder-based additive manufacturing techniques provide tools to construct intricate structures that are difficult to manufacture using conventional methods. In Laser Powder Bed Fusion, components are built by selectively melting specific areas of the
powder bed, to form the two-dimensional cross-section of the specific part. However, the high occurrence of defects impacts the adoption of this method for precision applications. Therefore, a control policy for dynamically altering process parameters to avoid phenomena that lead to defect occurrences is necessary. A Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) framework that derives a versatile control strategy for minimizing the likelihood of these defects is presented. The generated control policy alters the velocity of the laser during the melting process to ensure the consistency of the melt pool and reduce overheating in the generated product. The control policy is trained and validated on efficient simulations of the continuum temperature distribution of the powder bed layer under various laser trajectories.
Surface level instability when tube is injected into vibrating bed of powder, which was originally found in experiments, is investigated numerically. We find that thicker (thiner) tube makes surface level inside tube higher (lower) than surface level
outside tube. With fixed acceleration amplitude of vibration, surface level inside tube becomes higher as amplitude of vibration increases, which can be explained by considering the dependence upon strength of convective flow.
In this paper, we develop a framework for solving inverse deformation problems using the FEniCS Project finite element software. We validate our approach with experimental imaging data acquired from a soft silicone beam under gravity. In contrast wit
h inverse iterative algorithms that require multiple solutions of a standard elasticity problem, the proposed method can compute the undeformed configuration by solving only one modified elasticity problem. This modified problem has a complexity comparable to the standard one. The framework is implemented within an open-source pipeline enabling the direct and inverse deformation simulation directly from imaging data. We use the high-level Unified Form Language (UFL) of the FEniCS Project to express the finite element model in variational form and to automatically derive the consistent Jacobian. Consequently, the design of the pipeline is flexible: for example, it allows the modification of the constitutive models by changing a single line of code. We include a complete working example showing the inverse deformation of a beam deformed by gravity as supplementary material.
To control part quality, it is critical to analyze pore generation mechanisms, laying theoretical foundation for future porosity control. Current porosity analysis models use machine setting parameters, such as laser angle and part pose. However, the
se setting-based models are machine dependent, hence they often do not transfer to analysis of porosity for a different machine. To address the first problem, a physics-informed, data-driven model (PIM), which instead of directly using machine setting parameters to predict porosity levels of printed parts, it first interprets machine settings into physical effects, such as laser energy density and laser radiation pressure. Then, these physical, machine independent effects are used to predict porosity levels according to pass, flag, fail categories instead of focusing on quantitative pore size prediction. With six learning methods evaluation, PIM proved to achieve good performances with prediction error of 10$sim$26%. Finally, pore-encouraging influence and pore-suppressing influence were analyzed for quality analysis.
