| contents | Residual stress and plastic strain in additive manufactured materials can exhibit significant microscopic variation at the powder scale, profoundly influencing the overall properties of printed components. This variation depends on processing parameters and stems from multiple factors, including differences in powder bed morphology, non-uniform thermo-structural profiles, and inter-layer fusion. In this research, we propose a powder-resolved multilayer multiphysics simulation scheme tailored for porous materials through the process of selective laser sintering. This approach seamlessly integrates finite element method (FEM)-based non-isothermal phase-field simulation with thermo-elasto-plastic simulation, incorporating temperature- and phase-dependent material properties. The outcome of this investigation includes a detailed depiction of the mesoscopic evolution of stress and plastic strain within a transient thermo-microstructure, evaluated across a spectrum of beam power and scan speed parameters. Simulation results further reveal the underlying mechanisms. For instance, stress concentration primarily occurs at the necking region of partially melted particles and the junctions between different layers, resulting in the accumulation of plastic strain and residual stress, ultimately leading to structural distortion in the materials. Based on the simulation data, phenomenological relation regarding porosity/densification control by the beam energy input was examined along with the comparison to experimental results. Regression models were also proposed to describe the dependency of the residual stress and the plastic strain on the beam energy input. |
