The project is aiming to control the stress wave propagation in additively produced metal components composed of at least two different metals with spatially shaped and multiple interfaces produced by laser powder bed fusion. This enables to control of internal arrangement and shaping of the interface between the two materials. Dynamic loading with different strain rates using Hopkinson pressure bars will be used to describe the stress wave propagation and kinetic energy absorption. At the same time, theoretical and numerical modelling of wave reflection/transmission will be performed on various geometrically arranged interfaces. Innovative numerical tools for advanced multi-material optimization of nested spatial structures will be developed for wave process control. The results will answer the questions of whether it is possible to control the propagation of stress waves by means of multi-material 3D metal printing, and what geometrical and mechanical parameters have a fundamental influence on the attenuation and concentration of stress waves.
