Fatigue in Additive Manufactured Metals 1st Edition

Capture the cutting edge of metal 3D printing with Fatigue in Additive Manufactured Metals, 1st Edition by Filippo Berto and Anton Du Plessis. This authoritative guide confronts one of the most critical challenges in additive manufacturing—predicting and improving fatigue performance in metal components—to help engineers and researchers design safer, longer-lasting parts.

Inside, you’ll find clear explanations of how microstructure, surface finish, residual stress, defects, and post-processing influence fatigue life in commonly used metal AM alloys. The book combines rigorous experimental data, practical testing methodologies, and analytical modeling so readers can assess durability across real-world applications in aerospace, automotive, energy, medical implants, and industrial manufacturing. Case studies and comparative analyses link theory to practice, making complex metallurgical concepts accessible without sacrificing technical depth.

Ideal for design engineers, materials scientists, quality managers, and graduate students worldwide, this 1st edition equips you with actionable strategies for improving part reliability—from build orientation and heat treatment to inspection and fracture mechanics approaches. Whether you work in Europe’s advanced manufacturing centers, North American aerospace labs, or Asia’s growing AM supply chain, this volume is tailored to global industry needs.

Thorough, practical, and up-to-date, Fatigue in Additive Manufactured Metals is the essential reference for professionals seeking to reduce failure risk, extend service life, and accelerate adoption of metal additive manufacturing. Add it to your technical library to translate research into robust, fatigue-resistant designs.
