Analytical Thermal Modeling of Powder Bed Metal Additive Manufacturing Considering Powder Size Variation and Packing

This work presents a computationally efficient predictive model based on solid heat transfer for temperature profiles in powder bed metal additive manufacturing (PBMAM) considering the heat transfer boundary condition and powder material properties. A point moving heat source model is used for the t...
