    The present work reports on the results of tension tests conducted on  316L stainless steel specimens extracted out of thin-walled boxes produced by powder jet additive manufacturing. The specimens were minimally processed to study the potential effects of the manufacturing process on the apparent mechanical properties rather than identifying the properties of the resulting bulk material.  Statistical analysis is performed and presented in an attempt to identify correlations between the manufacturing parameters and the apparent mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of interest are Young's modulus, the yield stress (measured at the 0.2% level), the ultimate stress, and the failure strain.

IDETC2020 - Virtual Conference

Supporting the need among researchers worldwide for additional online and multimedia content, ASME now offers the ASME Conference Video Collection. This platform will collect and provide long-term access to conference presentation videos, encompassing all technology areas within ASME's technical conference and events program. About 30,000-40,000 engineers across all mechanical engineering and related disciplines participate in ASME conferences each year. This includes authors of approximately 6,000 to 8,000 technical papers published by ASME, the majority of whom also submit video presentations for our virtual conferences. The video collection will be available as an add-on to existing product packages or as a separate subscription.
