Abstract

Various embodiments include a method for additive manufacturing of a building structure on using a simulation comprising: accessing a data set for the building structure describing the building structure in layers; calculating a global heat development in previous layers based a building history and heat input by an energy beam; determining a local heat development in a vicinity of the heat input; determining the process control based on the global and the local heat development; loading correction measures from a database; and assigning the correction measures locally to individual vectors of a tool path of the energy beam. At least one mass integral is calculated for individual vectors of the tool path. The measures are determined on the basis of a comparison of the calculated mass integral with mass integrals stored in the database.
