I am looking at an additive manufacturing route as an alternative to an existing technology which currently uses machined aluminium for its tooling. The process is thermally cyclic between 65C and room temperature and requires a good level of dimensional accuracy. While the mechanical properties...
I am trying to track down information about producing sound grey and ductile iron castings and I wonder if there is anyone here that can point me in the right direction, I am looking for some literature that is as in depth as possible so I can get down to the bare bones (similar to R.Wlodawer's...
Bit of a weird one, and I thought this is the best place to ask as it is under "fluid mechanics". Just as a note, Fluid mechanic related math goes way over my head so please keep the explanations simple(ish).
I need to work out an approximate inlet radius of a 100% liquidus metal flow when...
Hello All,
I have a large number of alloys with a number of base materials (aluminium, copper and nickel mostly) in a table listing the Liquidus, Solidus, Latent Heat, Feeding Effectivity and Solidification Morphology, stating if the alloy has a short or long freezing range. At first, I thought...
