Modélisations multiphysiques à deux échelles du procédé de fabrication additive par fusion laser de lit de poudre / Multiphysics modeling at two scales of the selective laser melting additive manufacturing processDurand, Pierre-Yves 25 April 2017 (has links)
Quel que soit le secteur d’activité, les procédés de fabrication additive pour les matériaux métalliques ont un fort potentiel industriel, spécifiquement pour la production de pièces à haute valeur ajoutée. Le secteur de l’outillage est l’un des utilisateurs de ces procédés, et plus particulièrement du Selective Laser Melting (SLM). Ce procédé permet de diminuer les coûts et les temps de production des outillages, tout en augmentant la complexité des pièces fabriquées. Cependant, pour améliorer la qualité des pièces fabriquées, une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes physiques qui le régissent est nécessaire. Dans ce travail de thèse, consacré à la modélisation du procédé SLM, les approches suivies sont multiphysiques à deux échelles. La première échelle de modélisation, utilisant la méthode Volume Of Fluid, correspond à la fusion d’un lit de poudre par un laser puis sa solidification. Le lit de poudre numérique est produit à partir d’un générateur spécifique basé sur la granulométrie identifiée expérimentalement. Après certaines hypothèses simplificatrices posées sur les phénomènes physiques à modéliser, la tension superficielle a été implémentée et a nécessité l’utilisation de la méthode des « heights functions ». La seconde échelle de modélisation correspond à la construction d’une succession de cordons à l’aide de la méthode des éléments finis. Le modèle thermomécanique utilise la méthode « element birth » pour se rapprocher au plus près des conditions réelles du procédé. Après leur validation par des essais expérimentaux, les simulations ont permis de prédire le champ de température, la largeur de la zone fondue, ainsi que la formation du « keyhole ». / Regardless the industry, additive manufacturing processes for metallic materials have a great industrial potential, especially to product high added value parts. One of the main users of these processes, and more specifically the Selective Laser Melting (SLM), is the tooling industry for plastics processing. It make possible to reduce production costs and manufacturing times while increasing the complexity of manufactured parts. However, in order to improve the quality of the latter and ensure their certifications, a better insight into the related physical phenomena undergone by the material during the process is still needed. In this PhD thesis, the SLM process modeling is multiphysic and concerns two different scales. The first modeling scale uses the Volume Of Fluid method to model the powder bed melting and its ensuing solidification. The numerical powder bed is computed thanks to a specific generator enabling to take account for the experimental granulometry. Once some simplifying assumptions on the physical phenomena stated, the surface tension has been implemented requiring the "heights functions" method use. The second modeling scale corresponds to the building of laser tracks series through the finite element method. The thermomechanical approach uses the element birth method in order to meet as far as possible the experimental conditions. Following its assessment through experiment/simulation face off, model have enable to predict the temperature field and the melted zone width as well as the keyhole formation.

Zpracování vysokopevnostní hliníkové slitiny AlSi9Cu3 technologií selective laser melting / Processing of high-strength aluminum alloy AlSi9Cu3 using selective laser melting technologySuchý, Jan January 2017 (has links)
Method selective laser melting can produce metal parts by using 3D printing. This diploma thesis deals with the influence of process parameters on the workability of AlSi9Cu3 high-strength aluminum alloy using selective laser melting. The theoretical part deals with relations between process parameters and identifies phenomena occurring during the processing of metals by this technology. It also deals with conventionally manufactured aluminum alloy AlSi9Cu3. In the work, material research is performed from single tracks tests, porosity tests with different process parameters and mechanical testing. Here are showing the trends of porosity change at scanning speed, laser power, individual laser stop distance, bulk energy, and powder quality. The workability of the material can be judged by the degree of relative density achieved. Simultaneously the values of the achieved mechanical properties of the selected process parameters are presented. The data obtained are analyzed and compared with literature.

Selective laser melting of advanced metal alloys for aerospace applicationsJerrard, Peter George Eveleigh January 2011 (has links)
Research focused on the selective laser melting (SLM) of stainless steels and aluminium alloys. For steels, the possibility of creating a magnetically graded material was demonstrated as well as the ability to improve consolidation with austenitic and martensitic stainless steel powder mixtures. Stainless Steel/CoCr hybrid samples were also manufactured and tested to investigate the advantages of functionally graded materials (FGMs). Al alloy research began with examining the requirements for successful Al alloy consolidation in SLM and through experimentation it was found that Al alloys with good welding properties were the best choice: pure Al was found to be completely unsuitable. 6061 Al alloy was then used as a base material to manufacture Al-Cu alloy samples. Single layer SLM samples were produced first, which resulted in recognised Al-Cu microstructures forming. Multilayer Al alloy SLM research resulted in the discovery of the theorised ability to manufacture Al-Cu alloy parts with a nanocrystalline Al matrix with dispersed Al2Cu quasicrystals, resulting in a material comparable to a metal matrix composite that showed excellent corrosion resistance and compressive strength. Finally, a demonstration part was made to test the capability of the SLM process producing an aerospace type geometry using a customised Al alloy. Observations during manufacture and post process analysis showed that Al alloys were susceptible to changes in mechanical properties due to the geometry of the manufactured part.

Defect Detection in Selective Laser MeltingFoster, Moira 01 June 2018 (has links) (PDF)
Additively manufactured parts produced using selective laser melting (SLM) are prone to defects created during the build process due to part shrinkage while cooling. Currently defects are found only after the part is removed from the printer. To determine whether cracks can be detected before a print is completed, this project developed print parameters to print a test coupon with inherent defects – warpage and cracking. Data recorded during the build was then characterized to determine when the defects occurred.
The test coupon was printed using two sets of print parameters developed to control the severity of warpage and cracking. The builds were monitored using an accelerometer recording at 12500 samples per second, an iphone recording audio at 48000 samples a second, and a camera taking a photo every build layer. Data was analyzed using image comparison, signal amplitude, Fourier Transform, and Wavelet Decomposition.
The developed print parameters reduced warpage in the part by better distributing heat throughout the build envelope. Reducing warpage enabled the lower portion of the part to be printed intact, preserving it to experience cracking later in the build. From physical evidence on the part as well as time stamps from the machine script, several high energy impulse events in the accelerometer data were determined to be when cracking occurred in the build. This project’s preliminary investigation of accelerometers to detect defects in selective laser melting will be used in future work to create machine learning algorithms that would control the machine in real time and address defects as they arise.

Preliminary Investigations Into Selective Laser MeltingOtsu, David Takeo 01 June 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Selective laser melting is a promising metallic additive manufacturing process with many potential applications in a variety of industries. Through a gracious donation made by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, California Polytechnic State University received and installed an SLM 125 HL selective laser melting machine in February 2017. As part of the initial setup effort, a preliminary machine verification study was conducted to evaluate the general print quality of the machine with default parameter settings. Coincidentally, the as-printed microstructure of SLM components was evaluated through nil strength fracture surface examination, an alternative to conventional polish-and-etch metallography. A diverse set of components were printed on the SLM 125 HL to determine the procedural best practices and inherent constraints. Additionally, the mode and mechanism of failure for a defective Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory component fabricated at their facility was investigated. From these studies, extensive documentation in the form of standard operating procedures, guidelines, templates, and summary reports was generated with the intent of facilitating future selective laser melting research at Cal Poly and strengthening the learning of students interfacing with the novel technology.

Analyse, modélisation et simulation de l'apparition de contraintes en fusion laser métallique / Analysis, modeling and simulation of residual stresses during the SLM process of metallic powdersVan Belle, Laurent 13 November 2013 (has links)
Les procédés additifs, auxquels appartient la fusion laser de poudres métalliques, ont la capacité de créer des structures à géométries complexes, avec la possibilité d'intégrer des formes creuses, par exemple des canaux de refroidissement assurant un contrôle thermique optimum. Ce procédé permet de fabriquer des pièces réelles à partir de poudres métalliques, par fusion du matériau, couche par couche, en accord avec le modèle CAO. Au cours du procédé, de nombreux cycles thermiques et d'importants gradients thermiques se produisent dans la pièce au cours de sa fabrication. Ces gradients de température induisent des déformations plastiques hétérogènes et de ce fait des contraintes résiduelles. Ces contraintes peuvent nuire à la qualité de la pièce obtenue, par exemple sa résistance mécanique. Ces travaux ont pour objectifs de proposer un modèle numérique, s’appuyant sur la méthode des éléments finis afin d'étudier l'apparition des contraintes résiduelles lors du procédé de fusion laser de poudres métalliques. Le logiciel multiphysique ABAQUS® a été utilisé pour effectuer les analyses thermiques et mécaniques. La technique « d'ajout et de suppression des éléments » a été utilisée afin de simuler la fusion et la solidification de la matière au cours du procédé. Les propriétés mécaniques dépendantes de la température de l'acier maraging, utilisé dans notre cas, ont été obtenues à l’aide d’essais expérimentaux de caractérisations et intégrées dans le modèle. Les calculs sont réalisés de manière découplée, dans un premier temps le calcul thermique est effectué, puis les résultats sont utilisés pour réaliser le calcul mécanique et finalement prédire les champs de contraintes. Dans le cadre de ce travail, une méthode originale s'appuyant sur la technique de mesure des contraintes résiduelles par enlèvement de couches successives a été mise au point pour mesurer ces contraintes en direct au cours du procédé. Les résultats renseignent sur le niveau et la distribution des contraintes dans la pièce créée et le support. Deux paramètres ont été testés afin d'étudier leur influence sur le niveau des contraintes résiduelles : le temps d’étalement de la poudre entre deux couches successives et la hauteur des couches. Le modèle numérique paramétrable permet d'analyser les effets de paramètres liés au procédé sur la répartition des contraintes résiduelles dans les pièces fabriquées. Les résultats montrent que la variation de l'épaisseur du support n'affecte pas la répartition des contraintes dans la pièce créée. Le préchauffage du support à une température de 800°C réduit les contraintes résiduelles L'étude de quelques trajectoires laser montre leurs influences sur la répartition des déformations plastiques cumulées ainsi que la hauteur des couches de poudres ou de la forme du support (embase, colonnes). / The Selective Laser Melting process, belonging to Additive processes , have the ability to create structures with complex geometries , with the possibility of including cavities, such as cooling channels providing optimum temperature control. This process enables the manufacture of three-dimensional parts from metal powders by melting the material , layer by layer, in agreement with the CAD model. In the process , high temperatures and thermal gradients cycles occur in the part during the process. These temperature gradients induce heterogeneous plastic strain and residual stresses. These residual stresses may affect the quality of the part obtained, for example the fatigue life. This work aims to propose a numerical model , based on the finite element method to study the appearance of residual stresses during laser melting process of metallic powders . The ABAQUS® Multiphysics software was used to perform the thermal and mechanical analyzes. The movement of the laser beam and the resolution of the thermal problem can predict the evolution of the temperature in the part and support. The "birth and death elements" technique was used to simulate the melting and solidification of the material during the process. Dependent mechanical properties of the temperature of the maraging steel used in this case were obtained using experimental testing and characterization and were established in the model. The calculations are decoupled : initially thermal calculation is performed and the results are used to perform mechanical calculations and finally predict the residual stress fields. In this work, a novel method based on the technique of measuring residual stresses by removing layers was developed to measure these stresses directly in the process. The results provide information on the level and distribution of stresses in the created part and support. Two parameters were tested to study their influence on the level of residual stress : time to spread the powder between two successive layers and layer height. The model is used to analyze the effects of process parameters related to the distribution of residual stresses in the manufactured parts. The results show that the variation of the thickness of the support does not affect the distribution of stresses in the part created. Preheating the substrate to a temperature of 800 °C reduces the residual stresses. The study of some laser strategies shows their influence on the distribution of plastic strain thus the height of the layers of powder or in the form of support (base, columns).
