  • Adaption of existing fatigue prediction models using alternative standard and non-standard texture parameters for as-built laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) surfaces, including comparison with testing results for AlSi7Mg0.6 material

 

What you will do

  • Surface texture characterisation and imaging with various optical microscopy methods
  • Evaluation of numerical testing data and image data
  • Data processing, modelling, and correlation
  • Documentation and presentation of your work 
  • Discussion of your results with experts in the respective fields

 

What you bring to the table
