Investigation of Causal Relationships between Printing Parameters, Pore Properties and Porosity in Laser Powder Bed Fusion

This work reports on employing X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and optical microscopy to investigate the causal relationships between printing parameters, pore properties, and porosity in 316L stainless steel samples additively manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF). The porosity is very sim...
