Abstract
In the present paper, microstructural and mechanical tests were carried out on AlSi10Mg samples manufactured by SLM technique in the XY building configuration. Homogeneous composition and typical microstructures were achieved for all the investigated samples. The mechanical properties were assessed through a tensile test and through the Impulse Excitation Technique (IET). The feasibility of ultrasonic Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) tests with Gaussian specimens characterized by large loaded volumes (risk-volumes) was also experimentally verified in the paper. A Gaussian specimen was designed and manufactured. A preliminary ultrasonic test was then carried out on the manufactured specimen and the fracture surface was finally investigated.
