Project brief

The Ti-TEX project developed a texture evolution model based on thermal gradient and solidification front velocity for the DED-AM simulation implemented in the MSC Marc.

Aerobase focus

Aerobase contributes material modelling and simulation methods that connect the project’s research questions with validated, engineering-ready workflows.

What this connects

The work brings together material behaviour, process conditions and industrial performance so teams can evaluate decisions before committing to physical production.
