Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods are directed to applying magnetohydrodynamic forces to liquid metal to eject liquid metal along a controlled pattern, such as a controlled three-dimensional pattern as part of additive manufacturing of an object. Porosity of one or more predetermined portions of objects fabricated from an accumulation of liquid metal droplets ejected using magnetohydrodynamic force can be controlled to form interfaces between support structures and parts within the object. Higher porosity along the interfaces, as compared to porosity along the support structures and the parts, can be useful for facilitating separation of the parts from the support structures.
