During the solidification of stainless steel, the mechanical behavior of the solidifying shell
follows nonlinear elastic-viscoplastic constitutive laws depending on metallurgical phase …

The initial solidification of molten steel in the mold is very important, as it is the origin of the
final slab, which associates with the surface defects and determines the final quality of …

The thermal expansion and thermal diffusion properties of Fe− Al alloys were measured
using dilatometric and laser flash methods. At two allotropic transformation temperatures, the …

The aim of the work is to propose an alternative method to qualitatively evaluate the
wettability of different alloys of a particular alloy system. The technique is based on a thermal …

One of the most important parameters in the foundry design of castings is the heat transfer
coefficient at the casting/mold surface (h), which significantly affects the solidification cooling …

Directional solidification experiments coupled with mathematical modelling, drop shape
analyses and evaluation of the reaction layers were performed for three different types of …

To investigate the influence of inlet temperature and velocity of mold cooling water on the
heat transfer effects in a continuous casting mold, a three-dimensional fluid flow and heat …

Cooling in the continuous casting mold is the essential process of the molten steel
solidifying into a slab shell. The synergistic relationship of casting state, process operation …

The unpredictable structure failures of carbon steel and low alloy steel leading to accidents
may be caused by the propagation of a flaw or crack already present in the structure …

Partial differential equations that are used in describing the nonlinear heat and mass
transfer phenomena are difficult to be solved. For the case where the exact solution is …
