MIFASOL - Thermal framework for additive manufacturing analysis

MIFASOL is a research project dedicated to the thermal analysis and modeling of parts during the Directed Energy Deposition - Additive Manufacturing (DED-AM) process. It aims to provide a modular and extensible Python framework to simulate, monitor, and analyze thermal behavior during fabrication.

The core package, TherMIFASOL, contains code developed during Quentin Dollé’s Ph.D. thesis, and includes tools for:

• Real-time sensor monitoring
• Experimental data processing
• Thermal modeling
• Utilities and numerical tools

The project also includes:

• Experimental data acquired during multiple test campaigns
• Calibration datasets
• Technical documentation of the measurement devices

Note: The experimental data (data/) is large and stored externally (e.g., local server or external disk), but may be shared upon request.
