Abstract The mechanical properties of additively fabricated metallic parts are closely correlated with their microstructural texture. Knowledge about the grain evolution phenomena during the additive manufacturing process is of essential importance to accurately control the final structural material properties. In this work, a two-dimensional model based on the cellular automata method was developed to predict the grain evolution in the selective laser melting process. The effectiveness of this presented model is proven by comparing the simulated and reported results. The influence of process parameters, like the scanning strategy, laser power, and scanning speed, on the microstructural grain morphology, are numerically evaluated.
