Three specimens with sub-surface defects were designed and printed using an additive manufacturing process called selective laser melting. The three defects were strictly based on the specimen defects 5, 7 and 8 of the NDE Sonaspection Education kit. The purpose was to evaluate the viability of 3D p...
