Fig. 5: Grain morphology in the as-built sample.

From: Phase-field modeling of grain evolutions in additive manufacturing from nucleation, growth, to coarsening

Fig. 5

a EBSD mapping; b simulation result after scanning of the 3rd layer 3rd track; c, d SEM images. The white dashed curves in a and b denote the estimated molten pool boundaries. The red arrows in c and d indicate the grain growth directions. Z direction is the build direction. Scale bars, 50 µm in a, b, 40 µm in c and 20 µm in d.
