Abstract To investigate the impact of surface topography on the mechanical properties of additive manufacturing materials, in this paper, high-strength aluminum alloy specimens were fabricated by the selective laser melting method. The influences of scanning speed, heat treatment, deposition direction, and surface roughness on tensile mechanical properties were examined. The surface topography measured by an optical microscope was reconstructed based on the Fourier series and MATLAB software, and the analytical solution of the stress concentration coefficient of the surface topography was derived using the Airy stress function. Finite element analysis was conducted using ABAQUS software to validate the analytical results. The probability density function of the stress concentration coefficient was obtained through normal fitting, and a method for evaluating the reliability of the material based on yield strength was proposed. The proposed methodology in this paper is of reference significance for the quantification of surface roughness and its effect on yield strength of other additive manufacturing materials and specimens.
