Research abstract
To address the needs of Navy to successfully produce 7000 series aluminum alloy components, Sentient proposes to develop a hybrid additive manufacturing (AM) process for this topic. Hybrid AM use a secondary process (e.g. peening, burnishing) along with primary AM process to tightly control thermal profile and stress evolution locally and globally, resulting enhanced part quality (e.g. negligible distortion, free of cracks, full dense).
