Selective laser melting (SLM) is a powder bed fusion type metal additive manufacturing process which is being applied to manufacture highly customised and value-added parts in biomedical, defence, aerospace, and automotive industries. Aluminium alloy is one of the widely used metals in manufacturing parts in SLM in these sectors due to its light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance properties. Parts used in such applications can be subjected to severe dynamic loadings and high temperature conditions in service. It is important to understand the mechanical response of such products produced by SLM under different loading and operating conditions. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the latest research carried out in understanding the mechanical properties of aluminium alloys processed by SLM under static, dynamic, different build orientations, and heat treatment conditions with the aim of identifying research gaps and future research directions.
选择性激光熔化（SLM）是一种粉末床熔融式金属增材制造工艺，正被应用于生物医学、国防、航空航天和汽车行业，以制造高度定制化和高附加值的零部件。铝合金因其重量轻、强度高和耐腐蚀性能，是这些领域中在SLM制造零部件时广泛使用的金属之一。此类应用中使用的零部件在服役时可能会承受严重的动态载荷和高温条件。了解SLM生产的此类产品在不同载荷和运行条件下的力学响应非常重要。本文全面综述了为了解SLM加工的铝合金在静态、动态、不同构建方向和热处理条件下的力学性能而开展的最新研究，旨在找出研究差距和未来的研究方向。
