  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

Samples produced from AlSi10Mg alloy powder by three-dimensional printing (selective laser melting) with different parameters are experimentally investigated. The samples produced are tested in extension, compression, and three-point flexure. The test results are graphically displayed.
