    Abstract: An example method for additive manufacturing of metals includes spreading a build material including a metal in a sequence of layers. Each layer has a respective thickness, a respective sequence position, and a respective exposed surface to receive radiated energy from a flood energy source prior to spreading of a subsequent layer. A energy function is determined based on the metal, the thickness, and the sequence position of an exposed layer. The energy function defines the radiated energy and includes an intensity profile and a fluence sufficient to cause a consolidating transformation of the build material in the exposed layer. The exposed surface of the exposed layer is exposed to the radiated energy from the flood energy source, causing the consolidating transformation of the build material in the exposed layer.
