Struct MeltPoolGeometry 

pub struct MeltPoolGeometry {
    pub half_width: f64,
    pub half_length: f64,
    pub depth: f64,
}

Estimated melt pool geometry from process parameters and material properties.

Based on the Eagar-Tsai analytical model (simplified).

Fields

half_width: f64

Melt pool half-width (m).

half_length: f64

Melt pool half-length (m) (in scan direction).

depth: f64

Melt pool depth (m).

Implementations

impl MeltPoolGeometry

pub fn eagar_tsai( mat: &PbfMaterial, params: &PbfProcessParams, ambient_temp: f64, ) -> Self

pub fn volume(&self) -> f64

Melt pool volume (m³), approximated as an ellipsoid.

pub fn aspect_ratio(&self) -> f64

Aspect ratio (length / width).
