Multiscale hierarchical and heterogeneous mechanical response of additively manufactured novel Al alloy investigated by high-resolution nanoindentation mapping

Abstract Smart alloying and microstructural engineering mitigate challenges associated with laser-powder bed fusion additive manufacturing (L-PBFAM). A novel Al–Ni–Ti–Zr alloy utilized grain refinement by heterogeneous nucleation and eutectic solidification to achieve superior performance-printabili...
