To investigate the hot deformation behaviour of Al-3% Mg 2 Si, isothermal compression tests
were carried out in the temperature range of 300–500° C and strain rate range of 0.01–5 s …

Recent studies demonstrate that Al-Si alloys, which are conventionally used in as-cast form,
can be transformed to profiles through high temperature plastic deformation. However, rare …

As a promising material for application in lightweight automobile, Al–Si alloys are subjected
to complex cyclic thermo-mechanical loading when employed in engines. This study …

Al–Si eutectic alloys could be an alternative for gray and compacted graphite cast iron
engine blocks due to their excellent thermal conductivity, low density (resulting in weight …

Abstract The Al-Si alloy family is among the most widely used nonferrous alloys, in both cast
and wrought products. The alloys have undergone a continuous progress toward …

In this study, a series of strain-controlled low-cycle-fatigue (LCF) and low-cycle-fatigue-creep
(LCFC) experiments were conducted on a cast Al-Si-Cu alloy. LCF and LCFC experiments …

The influence of Ni-rich intermetallic particles (IMPs) on the microstructure, high-temperature
mechanical properties, and corrosion behaviour of Al–Si–Mg–Cu–Ni alloys was …

Abstract Al-8Si-0.5 Mg, Al-8Si-2Cu, and Al-8Si-2Cu-0.5 Mg alloys have been designed in
this study, aiming to reveal the influence of Mg and/or Cu additions on microstructures and …

A new Al-Si-based casting alloy with high elastic modulus in the range of 90‐100 GPa and
low density, less than 3 g/cm 3, was developed by alloy design and microstructural …

How to break through the serious effect of hard and coarse primary Si on the properties of
alloy matrix has become a major challenge for motivating the application of high-Si Al alloy …
