...Bo Chen; Peizhi Yu; Yi Su; Caiwang Tan; Xiaoguo Song; Yunxia Chen Purpose Laser metal deposition is an ideal method to fabricate functionally graded materials (FGMs) whose properties vary with the dimensions, and the transition layer would highly influence the mechanical properties. However...

...Danna Tang; Liang Hao; Yan Li; Zheng Li Purpose The study aims to explore the composition and microstructure of clay functionally graded materials under the process of double-gradient direct ink writing (DIW). Design/methodology/approach The investigation focused specifically on the pore...

...Pierre Muller; Jean-Yves Hascoet; Pascal Mognol Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose an evaluation of toolpaths for additive manufacturing of functionally graded materials (FGM) parts to ensure the manufacturing of parts in compliance with the desired material distribution...
