Mechanical Characterization of Additively Manufactured Parts by FE Modeling of Mesostructure

In the present study, the mesostructure of a fused deposition modeling (FDM) processed part is considered for the investigation of its mechanical behavior. The layers of FDM printed part behave as a unidirectional fiber reinforced laminae, which are treated as an orthotropic material. The finite ele...
