Since the inception, additive manufacturing (AM) continues to grow and change the
paradigm of manufacturing for developing advanced materials. One such case is the …

Inspired by nature, advanced functionally graded materials (FGMs) are an appropriate
response to high-performance multi-functional applications. The introduction of modern …

In this work, a functionally graded material (FGM) part was fabricated by depositing a Cu-
based alloy on top of a high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel by twin-wire and arc additive …

Current industrial applications demand materials with customised features and site-specific
properties, and many such applications use bimetallic structures. Bimetallic structures offer …

Directed energy deposition (DED) is an additive manufacturing technique that employs laser
melting to permit for the free form manufacturing of components from many input materials …

Functional gradient materials (FGMs) are composite materials made up of two or more
materials, with components or structures that gradually change, resulting in a gradual …

Additive manufacturing (AM) of a nickel-aluminum-bronze (NAB)/15-5 PH multimaterial by
laser-powder directed energy deposition (LP-DED) accomplished a combination of excellent …

In this work, 316L/CuCrZr functionally graded materials were prepared by laser powder bed
fusion. Not only the strong bonding of 316L and CuCrZr was achieved, but more importantly …

Functionally graded metallic materials (FGMMs) are a new type of heterogeneous materials
composed of polymetallic components with gradients in structure or composition. Compared …

The feasibility of fabricating a single component with a copper and stainless steel multi-
material structure can broaden its functional properties and offer significant value in …
