A novel smoothed particle hydrodynamics formulation for thermo-capillary phase change problems with focus on metal additive manufacturing melt pool modeling

Laser-based metal processing including welding and three dimensional printing, involves localized melting of solid or granular raw material, surface tension-driven melt flow and significant evaporation of melt due to the applied very high energy densities. The present work proposes a weakly compress...
