The spread of integrated structural elements and parts made from low‐density materials (for
example aluminum and polymers) created a need for joining technologies with which these …

ABSTRACT 4043 aluminium deposits were elaborated using a 3D print device equipped
with a Cold Metal Transfer welding source. Two sets of process parameters leading to …

Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) appears as one of the most promising technologies
due to its capacity to process all types of materials used in welding, its high production rate …

Gas metal arc-directed energy deposition is a metal additive manufacturing technique that
involves the melting of a filler wire under an electric arc resulting in a high rate of deposition …

Managing the quality of functional parts is a key challenge in wire arc additive
manufacturing. In case of additive production of aluminum parts, porosity is one of the main …

Large three-dimensional metallic parts can be printed layer-by-layer using gas metal arc
directed energy deposition (GMA-DED) process at a high deposition rate and with little or no …

This work presents a fast methodology to adjust heat source model parameters that
reproduce the evolution of temperatures and distortions of a welded joint. This joint is …

In wire arc additive manufacturing, residual displacements represent a common challenge.
Simulations act as a tool for predicting this deformation, consequently reducing scrap rates …
