Selective Laser Melting- Additive manufacturing

Submitted by ojas rahate on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 08:28

Hi

I am working on the modelling of SLM. I am actually a total beginner. I would be glad if anyone can help through with the steps involved in the simulation. I have understood that I need to make use of Liggghts to simulate the powder particles and then couple it with OpenFoam to simulate the moving heat flux/laser. I would be really glad if someone can provide with a sample input file, so that I have something to start off with.

Thanks
Ojas

Hi Ojas, I am also working on SLM. I have just started to learn about simulation. I was wondering if you could help me in modelling. I am a complete beginner in open source solvers and a bit confused.
