Abstract

A method of additive manufacture involves building a containerand a structure by fusing powder, such that the container contains the structure and unfused powder. The containermay be used in a method for predicting powder degradation in an additive manufacturing process. Containers containing different types of structure may be built to measure the effect of building different types of structures on powder degradation. A structure to be built may be characterised by classes of structural features it contains and information obtained used from building containers used to predict how building the structure will degrade powder.
