Phase change materials (PCMs) are classified according to their phase change process, temperature, and composition. The utilization of PCMs lies mainly in the field of solar energy and building applications as well as in industrial... more
A highly repeatable solidification test was developed. It was designed to study the effect of process parameters on solidified micro and macrostructures. Different cooling rates were used for solidification and cooling of S 355 J2... more
Dendritic structures are one of the most frequent patterns in nature, that appear in crystalline systems (such as metals), advanced ceramics and neural systems of the living organisms. Embedded in the core of many industrially important... more
Hydrogen embrittlement in 304L austenitic stainless steel fabricated by laser powder-bed-fusion (LPBF) was investigated and compared to conventionally produced 304L samples with two different processing histories; casting plus annealing... more
Thank you very much; I am bharat sharma founder of steady die casting solutions. This time I have found one more solution for biscuit thickness validation in high pressure die casting. In this paper we will discuss, what is biscuit... more
Alumno: Ramón Eduardo Lopez Vilamil 1. Vibraciones de la red cuadrada. Consideremos vibraciones transversales de una red cuadrada plana de filas y columnas dé atomos idénticos y designemos por u l,m el desplazamiento normal al plano de la... more
The control of the metallurgy of steels is now highly developed. This is in contrast to the casting techniques for steels. Although continuous casting is generally conducted well, current ingot casting techniques are poor, unnecessarily... more
Today, a large number of different steels are being processed by Additive Manufacturing (AM) methods. The different matrix microstructure components and phases (austenite, ferrite, martensite) and the various precipitation phases... more
Earlier research carried out on the ductility of Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloys have showed that the ductility of Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloys with high levels of Fe (0.5 wt. %) and Cu (4.0 wt. %) is increased at high (7~9%) concentrations of Si. Quantitative... more
We present a brief overview on recent developments in the field of strong and ductile non-equiatomic high-entropy alloys (HEAs). The materials reviewed are mainly based on massive transition-metal solute solutions and exhibit a broad... more
La représentation des propriétés et des phénomènes du monde physique existe dès le début de la vie, comme une donnée première de la réalité. Dans plusieurs recherches centrées sur les représentations des enfants on trouve que ces... more
Due to its influence on the heat transfer between cast part and mould the air gap formation is an important problem for many casting processes. The general explanation for the gap formation is that as a result of stresses and distortions... more
Hot tearing is a major defect in castings or semifinished cast products. It corresponds to the opening of cracks in the mushy zone and, more precisely, in the areas with high fraction of solid (typically 0.9 and beyond) when the material... more
The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of the aspect ratio and Grashof number on the convection diffusion phenomena associated with solid liquid phase transition processes during PCM solidification within a rectangular... more
Solidification patterns in crystalline systems are one the most aesthetically pleasing examples of pattern formation in nature. During solidification when a planar solid/liquid interface becomes unstable, it reorganizes itself into... more
"Al–Cu-based MMCs reinforced by Al–Fe intermetallics are investigated for their wear behaviour. The composite (Al–4.5 mass% Cu–3.4 mass% Fe) was produced by solidification processing where the Al–Fe-based intermetallic formed in situ in a... more
The work is devoted to improvement of mechanical properties of iron castings via adjusting of the cooling rate without introduction of alloying additives. The new technological solution is suggested; it can be easily adapted to a casting... more
Sand casting technologies have now emerged as practical and commercial ways of manufacturing high integrity near net shape castings. A variety of castings have found their way into general engineering applications. Castings that serve... more
A busca pela melhoria das propriedades metalúrgicas do depósito soldado e de suas características geométricas aguça a realização de pesquisas voltadas para o desenvolvimento e o aperfeiçoamento da gama de aplicação da soldagem a arco... more
In this paper an arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) formulation has been developed for the simulation of casting processes. The method is applied both to mould filling simulation, where it can provide accurate free surface description,... more
Solidification of molten metal after being poured into a mould cavity is an important phenomenon in casting and is of great interest to physicists, metallurgist, casting engineers and software developers. A molten metal is poured at a... more
Beam blank casting is a mature process born in 1968 [1]. Around 60 casters has been installed since. In this paper a thorough review of the literature on defects in beam blanks is carried out. The focus is on the formation mechanism and... more
