Which consequence results when rapid deposition causes overheating in additive manufacturing?

A)Increased tensile strength results
B)Grain boundary sliding increases
C)Phase segregation is accelerated
D)Dislocation density decreases sharply

💡 Explanation

Rapid deposition can cause overheating, accelerating **phase segregation** because thermal gradients increase atomic diffusion. Therefore, composition varies in the final part, rather than remaining uniform because tensile strength wouldn't drastically improve at segregation points.
