The constant drive toward cleaner, more powerful and more efficient jet turbines in the aerospace industry has narrowed the gap between the aircraft performance envelope requirements and the material limits. The most advanced turbine engines are incredibly complex in design and the weight-saving requirements have placed significant pressure on material capabilities and the manufacturing systems. The next generation of manufacturing methodologies are being developed in the Additive Manufacturing (AM) arena from which Selective Laser Melting (SLM) has emerged as a promising candidate for producing highly complex components. Selective Laser Melting is a laser-based AM technique which builds 3-dimensionsal parts from CAD models in a layerwise fashion... 2015-09-14T07:07:59Z 2015-09-14T07:07:59Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13845 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
