The development of large residual elastic strains and stresses during laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing is one of the most significant barriers to widespread adoption. Accurate modeling of these strains and stresses is broadly recognized as an effective tool for mitigating these challenges, but rigorous validation data are needed. This data publication includes measurement data from diffraction-based characterizations of residual elastic strains in as-built (not heat treated) artifacts manufactured as part the the 2018 Additive Manufacturing Benchmark Series (AM Bench).

This data repository provides a central location for a body of work using one build of nickel-based alloy 718 (IN718) material and resulted in three different studies. The IN718 parts were manufactured by laser powder bed fusion using a range of laser energy densities (manipulation of processing variables) and orientations with respect to the build direction. The influence of processing variables on resulting grain structures, pore structures, and mechanical properties were studied in the as-built (not heat treated) condition.

This dataset contains raw mechanical data (strain, stress and strain rate curvesand initial temperatures) for compression experiments performed on aluminum alloy 6061-T6using the NIST pulse-heated Kolsky Bar at strain rates between 2400 1/s and 2700 1/s and initialtemperatures from 23 °C to 527 °C and heating times ranging between 0.2 s and 3.5 s. At this time,the thermal history of the specimen during heating is not included in the dataset but this informationmay be included in a future update.

This data set contains files included in the detailed instructional demonstration paper submitted to Integrating Materials and Manufacturing Innovation. The detailed instructional demonstration paper includes documentation detailing how to configure and carry out a repeatable Rietveld Refinement with the software MAUD. The data set provides: diffraction data from two different neutron diffraction measurements, crystallographic information files, and configuration files for the refinement process.

These four data files contain datasets from an interlaboratory comparison that characterized a polydisperse five-population bead dispersion in water. A more detailed version of this description is available in the ReadMe file (PdP-ILC_datasets_ReadMe_v1.txt), which also includes definitions of abbreviations used in the data files. Paired samples were evaluated, so the datasets are organized as pairs associated with a randomly assigned laboratory number.

The absolute laser absorption was measured simultaneously with X-ray imaging during laser melting of Ti-6Al-4V solid metal. The data included here are the time-resolved absolute absorbed power and the Xray images acquired at the same time, along with timing data for synchronization. Also included is information about the experimental configuration including applied laser power, laser beam spatial profile, and the experimental setup. A text document is included that describes all files.

Materials discovery and development necessarily begins with the preparation and identification of product phase(s). Crystalline compounds can be identified by their characteristic diffraction patterns using X-rays, neutrons, and or electrons. An estimated 20,000 X-ray diffractometers and a comparable number of electron microscopes are used daily in materials research and development laboratories for this purpose.

This dataset includes a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (*.xlsx file) provided as supplemental material for the NIST Technical Note (TN-2099) publication titled "Quasi-Static Position Calibration of the Galvanometer Scanner on the Additive Manufacturing Metrology Testbed". The file contains two tabs, titled "Pre-Compensation" and "Post-Compensation", which provides example measurement data and calculations pertaining to the calibration procedures described in the publication.

Supplementary Data for the paper "Three-Dimensional Particle Shape Analysis Using X-ray Computed Tomography: Experimental Procedure and Analysis Algorithms for Metal Powders" by E.J. Garboczi and N. Hrabe. Contains all the data and programs described in this paper to generate the results discussed in the paper. Also contains all the results that are generated by the data and programs, with which the user can compare to check their results.

This is a file containing aggregation data for two proteins that were thermomechanically aggregated. The aggregated proteins were separated by asymmetric flow field flow fractionation and separated protein fractions were detected and quantified by UV spectrophotometry and multi-angle light scattering. The UV spectrophotometry was used to quantify the amount of residual monomer, which is reported herein. The multi-angle light scattering was fitted to a relevant model to calculate the molecular weight of the aggregated protein, also reported herein.
