A thermo-mechanical model for hot cracking susceptibility in electron beam powder bed fusion of Ni-base superalloys

Hot cracking is a major challenge in the additive manufacturing of Ni-base superalloys. Most cracking indicators only consider the alloy composition and its effects on solidification behavior, strength, and ductility. We propose a new model that extends these classical cracking indicators by additio...
