ME-GY 6423 Additive Manufacturing of Metallic Materials3 Credits
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is the fastest growing industrial field. Numerous examples are available where components manufactured by AM methods are now put into service. This course will focus on one of the largest share of materials used in current industrial scale 3D printing, i.e., metals. The topics will cover the basic characteristics of metals and alloys through discussion of powder characterization, phase diagram, and microstructure to relate them to additive manufacturing process and properties of the manufactured parts. The course will also discuss the applications of metal 3D printed parts and future opportunities.
Prerequisite(s): Graduate Standing
Weekly Lecture Hours: 3
