FEM for tensile specimens printed in vertical position B and made of ABS+ material

Abstract

3D printing is finding more and more applications in the industrial field and an investigation is required by material categories and by printing positions of the mechanical properties and how the respective landmarks behave in terms of displacements and internal stresses. In order to reduce the number of mechanical tests, in order to investigate displacements and internal stresses, we can use finite element analysis methods. In the present paper, the analysis with finite elements of some tensile specimens, printed 3D from ABS+ material, in the vertical position B will be presented.
