Abstract | Additive manufacturing processes allow the manufacturing of complex geometries while ensuring good microstructural and mechanical properties. In this general context, the proposed study consists in optimizing the implementation of a composite steel matrix (16NCD13) reinforced by ceramic particles (TiC) by means of two laser techniques (Direct energy deposition and Laser powder bed fusion). The objectives are to study and to understand the resulting microstructures and to characterize the resulting mechanical properties. The thesis will take place both at the PIMM laboratory of Arts et Métiers (75013 Paris) and at the Centre des Matériaux of the Ecole des Mines de Paris (91100, Evry). |
