... applications ranging from tissue engineering to consumer goods industry. Understanding the size effects on the strength of these parts is essential to extend their use in the microsystem applications. This paper studies the effect of scale on the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of a 3D printed...

... and the so-called size effect occurs when the part dimension is decreased to micro-scale. To analyze the quality of micro-parts, the material flow stress, anisotropy, ductility and formability in micro-scale need to be considered. In the paper, micro tensile and micro deep drawing tests of Ti foils were used...

... interface. Moreover, changing the uncut chip thickness to a small-value range, comparable or smaller than the edge radius, will involve the so-called size effect. In this study, a developed 2D cutting simulation that incorporates deposition residual stresses was applied to evaluate the size effect...
