Investigation on microstructure and mechanical properties of squeeze cast Al-Si alloys by numerical simulation

Since squeeze casting process is considered as a new technology for light alloys like aluminum and magnesium, more basic research is required for a scientific understanding of the practice. In distinct, as a cost-effective and resource-efficient tool, advanced numerical modelling in conjunction with...

description Since squeeze casting process is considered as a new technology for light alloys like aluminum and magnesium, more basic research is required for a scientific understanding of the practice.

In squeeze casting, an external pressure is applied to molten metal before, during and after its solidification, which makes the condition at the casting die interface different from other typical casting techniques.
