Laser powder directed energy deposition fabrication and tensile sandwich evaluation of Ti64-C103-GRCop-42 functionally graded materials

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) provide an avenue to combine two alloys with different primary benefits such as Ti–6Al–4 V (Ti64) and GRCop-42, which expands the bounds of engineering design possibilities. However, direct grading between Ti64 and GRCop-42 via laser powder di...
