This article studied A356/316L composites which were fabricated by infiltrating additively manufactured 316L lattices with molten A356. Various tests were conducted on the properties of the composites to determine if the two-step processing used to manufacture them avoided the issues that current fusion-based additive manufacturing techniques have. The thermal conductivity of the composites was determined with the transient plane source (TPS) technique. The results showed that the thermal conductivity ...
