| Outline of Research at the Start |
An improved cold spray (CS) method is introduced to achieve high-quality, low-cost additive manufacturing (AM) of high-strength aluminum (Al) alloys. This research aims to elucidate the control mechanisms of in-process micro-forging on the three key features by establishing a supersonic impact-bonding simulation model, and to clarify the strengthening principles of the three key features on the overall mechanical performance of the CSAM high-strength Al alloys by establishing cross-scale strength evaluation simulation models.

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research focused on cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) of high-strength aluminum alloys, investigating supersonic impact-bonding and micro-forging mechanisms. A dislocation dynamics-based model was developed to clarify how micro-forging enhances void closure, grain refinement, and bonding. The model's accuracy was validated through experiments. Temperature control during deposition was found to eliminate delamination. In the final stage, fatigue performance before and after heat treatment was evaluated, and the model was extended to other supersonic impact processes such as laser shock peening. This work established a process-microstructure-performance relationship, supporting CSAM process optimization for high-strength metals.
