A combined theoretical and experimental approach is developed to quantitatively determine
the solidification thermal parameters: transient heat transfer coefficients, tip growth rates and …

Porosity is one of the most important defects in metals casting. In this study,
macrosegregation and porosity formation were investigated by a numerical model and by …

The effects of the addition of 5.0 wt.% Ni to an Al− 6wt.% Cu alloy on the solidification
cooling rate T˙ growth rate (VL), length scale of the representative phase of the …

Porosity is a major casting defect in alloys with large solidification intervals due to the
disordered microstructure and broad mushy zones, which decreases badly the mechanical …

Porosity is a common casting defect induced by solidification shrinkage as well as gas
segregation, nevertheless, it may exert a beneficial effect on reducing alloying element …

Alloys with large solidification intervals are prone to issues from the disordered growth and
defect formation; accordingly, finding ways to effectively optimize the microstructure, further …

The present work focuses on the influence of alloy solute content, melt superheat, and
metal/mold heat transfer on inverse segregation during upward solidification of Al-Cu alloys …

A mathematical model for coupling prediction of inverse segregation and porosity for up-
vertical unidirectional solidification of Al–Cu alloys is established, based on the analysis of …

This paper characterizes the impact of solidification rate on the morphology and type of
microstructural and mechanical properties of a nickel-based superalloy with a nominal …

ZL205A alloys with large thin-walled shape were continuously processed by coupling
travelling magnetic fields (TMF) with sequential solidification, to eliminate the shrinkage …
