High-speed synchrotron X-ray imaging of melt pool dynamics during ultrasonic melt processing of Al6061
Abstract Ultrasonic processing of solidifying metals in additive manufacturing can provide grain refinement and advantageous mechanical properties. However, the specific physical mechanisms of microstructural refinement relevant to laser-based additive manufacturing have not been directly observed b...
