Influence of modification of the cast metal structure by solid phase particles on the nucleation of crystallization centers and their stability by Е.Н. Еремин

“…The efficiency of such particles serving as crystallization centers is due to the presence of an activated transition layer on their surface. In this regard, it is promising to use complex modification, in which activating additives are introduced into the melt together with dispersed refractory particles, which form a transition layer with the desired properties on the particles. …”

Ultrasonic online monitoring method of internal defects inmetal additive manufacturing by Linzhao Jiang, Jun Zhang, Jingli Yan, Hui Ding

“…Laser ultrasound has demonstrated significant potential for rapid defect scanning and detection, owing to its non-contact and multimodal capabilities. Additionally, the layer-by-layer accumulation process characteristic of additive manufacturing (AM) provides a flat detection surface during the printing of each layer, effectively addressing the challenges posed by the limited detection space in complex components. …”
