An Introduction to Wire ARC Additive Manufacturing: Fundamentals, Processing, and Applications

This book covers the fundamentals of wire arc additive manufacturing processes including principles and processing procedures for developing near-net-shape components and their applications. It further addresses wire arc additive manufacturing of titanium, aluminium, nickel-based alloys, stainless steel, copper, bronze, and iron-based alloys backed by case studies and illustrations. It explains the metallurgical and mechanical features of the wire arc additively manufactured components.

• Overviews directed energy deposition processes and fundamentals of wire arc additive manufacturing process
• Deals with the most successful additive manufacturing process to create large-scale components
• Provides the comparison of productivity between wire arc additive manufacturing and other additive manufacturing processes for various materials
• Discusses solidification process, thermal gradient, and microstructural features
• Includes real-time case studies and numerous illustrations

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in manufacturing and materials science engineering, welding, and additive manufacturing.
