Abstract |
Additive Manufacturing is one of the most promising technologies under the umbrella of Advanced Manufacturing identified by the European Commission as one of the Key Enabling Technology (KET), which can help achieve EU’s Twin Transition towards a Green and Digital Economy. The global market for additive manufacturing is expected to reach $40.2 billion by 2027, and the market for fatigueresistant additive manufacturing parts is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4% from 2022 to 2027. The fatigue life of AM parts presents non-negligible discreteness, challenging the fatigue performance evaluation. TUBITAK has advanced infrastructure with significant amount of experience in fatigue tests on different grades of super alloys, particularly Ni based super alloys, but has several weaknesses in the areas addressed in the FatSAM project, mainly lack of simulations expertise both in the simulation of the AM process and in the posterior simulation of the fatigue behaviour of these parts. Leading scientific institutions, CIMNE (Spain) and LTU (Sweden) have joined forces to bring expertise in these simulation fields and enhance the research management of TUBITAK by means of a diverse range of initiatives. The partnership encompasses skills
acquisition and networking through short-term stays of TUBITAK senior researchers at CIMNE and LTU, externships of youn researchers at CIMNE and LTU, the organization of workshops, short courses, joint participation in conferences and in scientific publications and training on project management and administration for both researchers and supporting staff. |
