Vital process parameters affecting the size and location of a shrinkage pore defect in an
aluminum alloy permanent mold casting of varying section thicknesses were sought. The …

The effect of Fe and Mn on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a series of Al-5
wt% Mg alloys processed by high pressure die casting (HPDC) was investigated. The …

Microstructural evolution and solidification behavior of Al-5 wt pct Mg-1.5 wt pct Si-0.6 wt pct
Mn-0.2 wt pct Ti alloy have been investigated using high-pressure die casting. Solidification …

In this work, a different wall-thickness 5-step (with thicknesses as 3, 5, 8, 12, 20 mm) casting
mold was designed, and squeeze casting of magnesium alloy AM60 was performed under …

The study of thermal resistance (TR) at the casting-mold interface has been performed to
describe the solidification process aimed at the improvement of technology and the …

The heat transfer at the metal-die interface is believed to have great influence on the
solidification process and cast structure of the high-pressure die-casting (HPDC) process …

Microstructure and mechanical properties of a newly developed Al–4Mg–2Fe alloy prepared
via high pressure die casting (HPDC) were studied. Attention was focused on the …

Solidification thermal parameters such as the growth rate and the cooling rate depend on
the metal/mold heat transfer efficiency, usually characterized by an interfacial heat transfer …

The foundry industry is regarded as one of the most energy-intensive industrial sector due to
its energy consumption up to 9 MWh/ton of produced metal. As a result, many companies …

This paper presented a new approach to decision making support of defects assessment in
metal matrix composites (MMC). It is a continuation of the authors' papers in terms of a …
