Resumen
Empowering metal additive manufacturing by unveiling the economic potentials of novel, low-cost alloys with improved mechanical properties (e.g., in comparison to conventional AM alloys, such as AISI 316L) and capable of in-build heat-treatment. Improvement of the quality of AM-processed material via the implementation of microstructural mechanisms for actively counterbalancing AM-process-related manufacturing flaws (pores, cavities).
