Texture and Microstructural Features at Different Length Scales in Inconel 718 Produced by Selective Laser Melting

Nickel-based Inconel 718 is a very good candidate for selective laser melting (SLM). During the SLM process, Inconel 718 develops a complex and heterogeneous microstructure. A deep understanding of the microstructural features of the as-built SLM material is essential for the design of a proper post...
