Abstract:
High strength forged aluminum alloys and methods for producing the same are disclosed. The forged aluminum alloy products may have grains having a high aspect ratio in at least two planes, generally the L-ST and the LT-ST planes. The forged aluminum alloy products may also have a high amount of texture. The forged products may realize increased strength relative to conventionally prepared forged products of comparable product form, composition and temper.

Abstract:
Methods for producing forged products and other worked products are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method comprises using additive manufacturing to produce a metal shaped-preform and, after the using step, forging the metal shaped-preform into a final forged product. The final forged product may optionally be annealed.

Abstract:
Methods for producing additively manufactured products are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method comprises using additive manufacturing to produce an aluminum alloy body, and, after the using step (a), cold working at least a portion of the aluminum alloy body, thereby relieving stress.
