About

Tommaso Pastore is a prominent researcher in materials science and engineering, with a primary focus on additive manufacturing, corrosion resistance, and the mechanical behavior of metallic alloys. His work centers on advancing the understanding of how processing parameters in techniques like Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) influence the microstructure and long-term durability of lightweight alloys, particularly aluminum-silicon-magnesium systems. Pastore's most cited paper, "Evaluation of corrosion resistance of Al–10Si–Mg alloy obtained by means of Direct Metal Laser Sintering" (2016), has garnered over 120 citations, establishing a foundational link between additive manufacturing conditions and the electrochemical performance of these materials. This contribution is critical for industries such as aerospace and automotive, where both strength and corrosion resistance are paramount. Beyond this, his research portfolio includes studies on the optimization of post-processing treatments and the characterization of surface integrity in laser-sintered components. Pastore’s work is widely recognized for bridging the gap between process engineering and practical material performance, making him a key figure in the development of reliable, high-performance additively manufactured parts.
