Experimental Evaluation of the Effects of Discrete-Grading-Induced Discontinuities on the Material Properties of Functionally Graded Ti-6Al-4V Lattices

In this study, we compared the material properties of linearly and sharply graded Ti6Al4V additively manufactured samples to investigate whether the more severe discontinuities caused by sharp grading can reduce performance. We performed compression testing with digital image correlation (DIC) in tw...
