Metal flow mechanisms during alternating current arc welding and additive manufacturing of aluminium alloy

Abstract Alternating current (AC) arc melting technology has been developed for the manufacturing of lightweight materials and provides a potential heat source in welding and additive manufacturing. However, metal flow and the corresponding effects of AC arc melting remain unclear. Here, 3D internal...
