      abstract     = {In times of climate change, reducing emissions is a key
                      aspect of the research done in the transportation industry.
                      As one of the most important lightweight materials,
                      aluminium occupies a crucial role in this regard. By
                      increasing the functional properties of current aluminium
                      alloys, manufacturers could, therefore, decrease the
                      component weight, thereby reducing emissions. The weight
                      canbe lowered by either utilizing a more lightweight design
                      or alternatively substituting iron-based components for the
                      aluminium ones. It is challenging to process high-strength
                      aluminium alloys with additive manufacturing because they
                      are prone to hot-cracking. “Defect-free” manufacturing
                      can, therefore, only be accomplished by using complex
                      additions such as nano particles or rareearth elements. Due
                      to their documented resistance against hot-cracking as well
                      as their mechanical properties, Al-Ni-alloys based on the
                      α-Al + Al₃Ni eutectic system are promising candidates for
                      investigationwith additive manufacturing.Within this thesis
                      a comprehensive characterization of the microstructural and
                      mechanical propertiesof Al-Ni-alloys in the additive
                      manufactured state is being conducted for the first time.
                      Also, the effect of selected strengthening agents on
                      additively manufactured components is being investigated.
                      The following alloys are taken into consideration in the
                      scope of the thesis: AlNi7.5,AlNi7.5Cu0.5, AlNi7.5Cu2.0,
                      AlNi7.5Zr0.5 and AlNi7.5Mg1.0Si0.5 (values refer to Wt.
                      $\%).$ By achieving certain thresholds of the mechanical
                      properties (ultimate tensile strength at room
                      temperature/250 °C: 500 MPa/150 MPa), these experiments
                      shall lay the foundation for future researchas well as for
                      the application of Al-Ni alloys as structural components.
                      Within parameter studies conducted with laser powder bed
                      fusion, it can be confirmed that Al-Ni-alloyscan be
                      processed (crack-free; part density ≥ 99.9 $\%)$ with
                      additive manufacturing. The eutectic phases α-aluminium and
                      Al₃Ni can be detected. The solidification structure within
                      the melt tracks is characterized by a cellular Al₃Ni
                      structure embedded within an α-aluminium matrix. Throughout
                      all alloys and states considered in this thesis, the tensile
                      properties determined demonstrate a comparably high strength
                      with a maximum value of 556 MPa. This finding also applies
                      for investigations conducted at elevated temperatures. In
                      particular, the addition of 0.5 Wt. $\%$ Zr can thermally
                      stabilize the alloy and leads to the determination of an
                      ultimate tensile strength of 214 MPa at 250 °C.Among the
                      alloys investigated, the elongation at failure was reduced
                      when the testing temperature is increased above 150 °C
                      because of an embrittlement of the grain boundaries. An
                      exception inthis regard is the alloy AlNi7,5Mg1,0Si0,5. When
                      Mg and Si are added, comparably ductile failurebehaviour can
                      be achieved at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, the light
                      weight potential of additively manufactured Al-Ni-alloys is
                      being demonstrated by the fabrication of complex part
                      geometries.},
