Uncertainties of it situ micromechanical testing of additive layer manufacturing (ALM) materials
Summary
Researchers investigated sources of uncertainty in in-situ micromechanical testing of additive layer manufacturing (ALM) materials within a scanning electron microscopy framework, identifying displacement and load measurement errors and sample misalignment as primary uncertainty contributors. The study proposed mitigation strategies to improve the reliability of micromechanical test data for ALM materials, supporting more accurate mechanical characterization of additively manufactured components.
The report investigates uncertainties in in-situ micromechanical testing of additive layer manufacturing (ALM) materials within a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) framework.
