Abstract

This study rationalizes the relatively higher elongation with minimal strength drop of 316L stainless steel (316LSS) manufactured using the hybrid approach in comparison to a fully additive approach followed by machining. It was found that twinning was the dominant deformation mechanism in 316LSS produced by both additive and hybrid approaches. The relatively lower fraction of twins in the as-fabricated state of hybrid approach compared to a fully additive approach resulted in delaying the onset of steady-state strain hardening rate to higher strain levels, thereby resulting in an overall increase in elongation to failure.
