Overview
SimuLPBF is self-developed simulation tool for modeling laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process at full part-level. It is developed based on open source finite element library named Deal.II which can simulate multiple physics process using advanced finite element techniques. This simulation tool helps designers, manufacturers, and researchers in the AM field to estimate the potential printing failures induced by the thermal cycles and to optimize process parameters to improve part performance.
The ability of this simulation tool includes:
