Part geometry-driven crystallographic texture control in a 3D-printed austenitic steel – a strategy for near-monocrystalline microstructure generation

We propose and employ a novel X-shaped geometry to strengthen the 〈001〉 || z crystallographic texture – distinctive of the electron beam powder-bed fusion technique, for a 3D-printed austenitic stainless steel of type 316 L. The prism angles of the X-shaped parts are varied among 60, 90, and 120 deg...
