Additive manufacturing (AM) technology has gained considerable popularity in the Energy, Maritime, and Oil & Gas (EMOG) industries to move beyond prototyping and into production parts for specific applications and requirements. In comparison to the aerospace, automotive, and medical industries, the adoption of AM in the EMOG industries has been moderate and is still very nascent. However, these sectors are aggressively exploring the potential of using AM to improve supply chain lead-time, performance, and operational efficiency. These industries face some unique challenges that other; more AM advanced industries do not encounter. Standard development bodies (e.g., API 20S) have already established frameworks around AM part adoption in EMOG. However, certification and qualification of these parts in extreme environments are still to be defined and established. Many stakeholders in EMOG industries have already demonstrated the capabilities of using AM to produce high-performance components, which has triggered increased interest in more components in higher safety requirements within these industries.

The medical industry has for many years been and remains a key sector that takes advantage of additive manufacturing (AM) as a mainstream fabrication technology. AM’s unique capability to rapidly and on-demand fabricate devices with complex, personalized (e.g., patient-specific) geometries that benefit from an increasingly diverse array of materials has enabled the ever-growing adoption of this technology in the facilitation of new medical applications. However, despite a growing number of applications and the tremendous opportunities that AM offers, the full potential of utilizing AM in the medical industry has yet to be fully explored.

Advancements in point-of-care manufacturing, regenerative medicine, hybrid manufacturing strategies – merging of AM with other modalities or materials, medical education, health monitoring, diagnostic tools, and surgical planning are enabling the broader adoption of AM within the medical industry. In addition, the expanded use of AM within the medical industry requires special attention in the development of new standard and regulatory protocols for imaging, inspection, qualification, and quality assurance to utilize these manufacturing methods in commercial applications.

One of the critical success factors to making the most out of Additive Manufacturing (AM) is to utilize Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) fundamentals and optimization techniques to take advantage of the design freedom that additive manufacturing enables. As AM technology evolves, design and optimization go beyond the traditional user-CAD input. Engineers also need to factor in stress analysis, thermal analysis, process simulation, microstructural evolution modeling, material-process-microstructure-property relationships, and cost estimation to effectively influence the design of AM components. Understanding and applying DfAM fundamentals and current state-of-the-art optimization and AI techniques are critical to creating quality, value-added solutions, accelerating the adoption of AM, and reducing the time and cost of AM implementation.

Environmental and corrosion behavior of additively manufactured alloys remains an underexplored but critically important area for ensuring reliable service performance. While AM research has traditionally emphasized microstructure and mechanical properties, environmentally driven deterioration, including corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, stress-corrosion cracking, and corrosion-fatigue, often governs the service life of a component. AM materials can exhibit distinct microstructures and degradation mechanisms when compared with conventionally processed alloys. (casting, forging, etc.). The application of post-processing methods, such as heat treatment, surface finishing, and coatings may influence material properties, and therefore enhance component performance. Another issue to be considered is that most characterization efforts rely on legacy corrosion-testing standards, which may not fully account for the unique microstructures and new materials produced by AM. While often applicable, these standards may require additional considerations or adaptation to ensure accurate evaluation of AM alloys.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies are increasingly used to produce functional components in applications such as medical, aerospace, automotive, energy, defense, and consumer electronics. However, their adoption in safety-critical parts within regulated sectors, such as civil aviation, remains limited. A major barrier is the need to mitigate risks associated with AM-specific material defects, requiring novel, sustainable, and robust characterization methodologies, including validated experimental models and predictive software for fatigue behavior. Developing these tools for safety-critical applications relies on a fundamental understanding of how AM microstructures and defects (e.g., sub-surface porosity, lack of fusion, and surface notches) affect component structural integrity. However, progress has been hampered by the lack of historical data, process-driven variability, and the rapid pace of technology development. We are convening at ICAM26 to share new discoveries, analyses, and case studies to advance qualification and certification as well as the safe use of AM components in fatigue-critical applications. We invite all subject-matter experts to submit abstracts focused on fatigue and fracture of AM parts.

Additive manufacturing (AM) feedstocks are available for a broad range of material types and come in various forms (e.g., powder, wire, filament, inks). New offerings are continuously introduced to the market with varied and unique characteristics. In some cases, the impact of feedstock characteristics on the process and part quality are not fully understood quantitatively. Therefore, a proper understanding of AM feedstock characteristics and the quantification of their performance during manufacturing is essential for the production of AM parts with repeatable quality, be it for fresh or reused feedstock materials. New characterization methods, acceptance criteria, and standards need to be developed for the complete and reliable characterization of feedstock materials.

The unique microstructural features and potential defects in metallic components fabricated by additive manufacturing (AM) result in key performance metrics and characteristics that may differ from their conventionally manufactured counterparts. These distinctive features include strongly textured microstructures, AM specific material flaws, surface irregularities, and more. 

To understand the impact of these unique AM microstructural and features on the material properties and consequently on parts performance, it is crucial to conduct thorough investigations through physical testing, as well as developing material models to simulate AM processes and resultant properties. While established testing standards exist for deriving various mechanical properties, it has become evident that conventional procedures may not always be applicable to AM materials due to the unique nature of the fabrication process. 

This symposium aims to address the challenges posed by the unconventional thermophysical phenomena, mechanical characteristics and property dependencies observed under different conditions, such as various geometries, process parameters, and post-processing. The topics covered in this symposium will delve into these crucial aspects, providing insights into the complexities associated with the microstructural characteristics of AM materials and their implications on overall material properties and parts performance.

While destructive evaluation methods such as mechanical testing and microstructural characterizations are often used to evaluate the mechanical performance of additively manufactured (AM) materials and parts, non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods can provide significant insights without the need for sectioning and damaging the part. Since the presence of defects (e.g., pores, lack of fusion, surface roughness, etc.) often influences the mechanical performance of AM parts significantly, understanding the critical characteristics (such as type, size, and distribution) and location of these defects is key to managing performance expectations, and qualification and serviceability. NDE methods can also be leveraged for the quantification of material properties.

Sinter-Based Additive Manufacturing (SBAM) processes offer improved resolution and surface finish, wider choice of materials, and increased build speed compared to fusion-based AM processes, resulting in lower production costs and enabling new applications. Sinter-based AM processes now include several technologies as defined in ISO/ASTM 52900: Binder Jetting (BJT), Material Extrusion (MEX), Material Jetting (MJT), and Vat Photopolymerization (VPP). There is also the emergence of several new SBAM technologies such as hybrid processes that rely on both additive and subtractive processes, 3D Screen printing, and 3D printing of multi-materials. Unique to these sinter-based processes, the powder feedstock is selectively bound together with a binding agent during the printing process to produce what is commonly referred to as a “green” part. Secondary debinding and sintering steps are then required to remove the binding agent and consolidate the powder material to the desired final part density. While the potential of these new technologies is high, there are still challenges being addressed to achieve the economy and scale these technologies promise and standardization needed to reach a positive inflection point in industry adoption.
