Keywords: Additive Manufacturing, Advanced Materials, Modeling and Simulation, Phase Transformations, Monitoring
Scope: This special topic will present the latest developments that explore and integrate the following breakthrough AM functionalities:
(i) Functionally graded materials: multi-material builds via sequential or simultaneous injection of raw materials, or single material with dramatically different process conditions for tailored hybrid microstructures;
(ii) Metamaterials: topological and/or shape optimization to exploit light-weighting and enhanced property response;
(iii) Multi-modal manufacturing: integrating additive with conventional manufacturing techniques, such as additive, subtractive processes, and/or external fields to achieve the right balance among materials properties, part resolution and build efficiency;
(iv) Advances in hardware, process monitoring, process control methods, and technologies to enable breakthrough functionalities.
