Additive Manufacturing of High-Performance Metallic Materials outlines the state-of-the-art on AM in high performance materials utilizing the two most industrially interesting routes of powder bed fusion (PBF) and directed energy deposition (DED). The book delves into Feedstock, Processing, Monitoring and control, Modeling and simulation, and Surface and thermal post-treatments. It specifically addresses materials and the most relevant and high performance applications, namely Ni-based alloys and Titanium alloys, and also provides insights into potential applications through illustrative case studies. With each chapter contributed by experts in the field, this work will serve as a comprehensive resource for graduate students and practitioners alike.

Authors
Robert Pederson Professor, Engineering Materials; Head of Division, Subtractive and Additive Manufacturing, University West, Sweden.
Professor Robert Pederson is professor in Engineering Materials and head of Division of Subtractive and Additive Manufacturing at University West. Robert has 20 years of experience within research and development of advanced metallic materials for aerospace and space applications. He received his PhD in 2004 in a project on titanium alloys in close collaboration with Volvo Aero Corporation (which became GKN Aerospace Engines Systems Sweden in 2012). Between 2004-2016, Robert worked at Volvo/GKN as research cluster leader, company specialist in materials technology, project leader, project manager, and responsible materials application engineer in a number of projects related with civilian aero engines as well as space rocket applications. In 2013 he became Associate Professor (Docent) at Chalmers University of Technology, and in 2015 he became Adjunct Professor at Lule� University of Technology. He has supervised 6 PhD students to doctors degree and is currently supervising 3 PhD students. The research work is focused on exploring and improving the understanding of the relationship between thermo-mechanical processing - microstructure - mechanical properties for titanium alloys and other metallic alloys and the key technologies of welding and additive manufacturing processes used by the aerospace and space industry.
Joel Andersson Professor, Materials Science; Head of Division, Welding Technology, University West, Sweden.
Professor Joel Andersson is a Professor in Materials Science and Head of Division of Welding Technology at University West and has extensive experience in superalloy metallurgy. Dr. Andersson has been responsible for research and development of high temperature materials from 2011-2015 at GKN Aerospace Engine Systems in Sweden, while having a part-time senior research position at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg Sweden. Since the beginning of 2016, he has been at University West and currently also holds an adjunct professorship at University of Manitoba, Canada. He has co-authored around 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals and conference contributions and has up-to-date supervised 7 PhD students to doctors degree and is currently supervising 6 PhD students.
Shrikant Joshi Professor, University West, Sweden.
Professor Shrikant Joshi has been at University West since Aug 2015, after long stints as a scientist in premier R&D institutions in India following his PhD at University of Idaho, USA in 1989. He has nearly 30 years of experience in fields spanning Surface Engineering, Laser Materials Processing and Additive Manufacturing. Shrikant has led numerous R&D projects that have culminated in many industrial applications, over a dozen patent applications and more than 185 publications in peer-reviewed journals.
