Abstract: The emergence of selective laser melting (SLM) has enabled the fabrication of complex structures with exceptional mechanical performance. However, process-induced defects, including porosity and geometric deviations, pose significant challenges to structural reliability, and their dynamic evolution under loading remains poorly understood. In this study, helical layered square honeycomb structures were fabricated via SLM. The effects of process conditions on defect characteristics, as well as the influence of porosity and wall thickness defects on mechanical properties, were investigated using X-ray computed tomography (CT), in situ loading tests, and finite element simulation. The results indicate that the investigated high-quality process conditions minimize porosity, optimize pore morphology, and improve wall thickness uniformity, thereby substantially reducing the adverse effects of pores on tensile properties. Under compressive loading, defect evolution, including pore expansion and wall thickness thinning, is primarily concentrated at structural corners, with more pronounced variations observed under coarse process conditions. Increased porosity, wall thickness reduction, and uneven thickness distribution all degrade the quasi-static compressive performance and medium to high-velocity impact resistance of the structure. Furthermore, thickness distribution exerts an independent influence on mechanical properties beyond the effect of overall average thickness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
