Automotive industry is seeking for weight reduction as a consequence to reduce the CO2
emissions to the atmosphere as well as to improve engine performance. Nowadays modern …

The development of rapid solidification technologies and their effects has provided a
stimulus to seek a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which kinetics determine …

The effect of rapid solidification on the microstructure of Al–8 Ce, Al–20 Ce and Al–36.6 Ce
(wt%) alloys has been investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy …

One of the most important factors directly affecting microstructure and mechanical properties
in directional solidification process is secondary dendrite arm spacing (sdas). it is very …

With the annual increasing effects of climate change becoming more evident industries are
looking inward to do their part and help minimize global warming. Over the past decade, the …

Abstract explains the efffects of Ce content on the properties as well as on the formed
morphologies and scales. Al-Ce alloys are anticipated to offer high-temperature strength. In …

The microstructures of rapidly solidified Al-8 Ce and Al-20 Ce (wt.%) alloys have been
characterized. The phases present in as-spun alloys are identified to be α-Al and α …

In the present work, the effect of the melt ejection temperature and peripheral wheel speed
on the microstructure of melt-spun Al–20 Ce (wt.%) alloy was investigated using X-ray …

In the present work, the microstructures of the Al–10Ce–5Sr alloy solidified under
conventional and rapid solidification conditions have been investigated using X-ray …

Growth temperatures TG of competing constituents such as primary dendrites and eutectics
play a critical role in determining the constitution and morphology of solidification …
