2. 1. A Study On Factor Influencing the Microstructure and Shrinkage Porosity Formation in Compacted Graphite Iron

   Author : Sadaf Vazehrad; Pär Jönsson; Attila Dioszegi; Steve Dawson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CGI; LGI; SGI; Solidification; Microstructure; Shrinkage porosity; Eutectic colony; Microsegregation;

   Abstract : During the last decades, an intensive effort has been dedicated to introduce compacted graphite iron (CGI) for truck engine components as its intermediate graphite morphology provides an increased tensile property compared to lamellar cast iron (LGI) and a better thermal conductivity compared to nodular cast iron (SGI). However, the narrow production technology window in this cast iron grade requires increased technological discipline. READ MORE

4. 2. Microstructural Evolution In As-cast Alloys during Plastic Deformation

   Author : Mitra Basirat; Pär Jönsson; Hasse Fredriksson; Jacques Lacaze; KTH; []
   Keywords : plastic deformation; compression test; recrystallization; deformation band; As-cast; microsegregation; carbide dissolution; disordered structure; order disorder transformation; twining; steel; β brass; copper; SRA - E-Science SeRC ; SRA - E-vetenskap SeRC ;

   Abstract : The effect of deformation on microstructural changes in metals and alloys is the subject of considerable practical interest. The ultimate goal is to control, improve and optimize the microstructure and texture of the finished products produced by metal forming operations. READ MORE

5. 3. On the Residual Stresses and Microstructure Formation of Aluminum-Silicon Cast Alloys

   Author : Mohsen Sadrossadat; Sten Johansson; Ru Lin Peng; Ingvar L Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : Al-Si alloys; residual stresses; microstructure; microsegregation; nucleation behavior; modeling; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Cast aluminum-silicon alloys are being increasingly used in automotive and aerospace industries for critical structure applications because of their excellent castability, low density, acceptable mechanical properties and low cost. Different casting and heat treatment parameters largely affect the microstructure and residual stress of the components, which in turn, has a great impact on their mechanical properties. READ MORE

6. 4. Compacted graphite iron : On solidification phenomena related to shrinkage defects

   Author : Björn Domeij; Attila Diószegi; Babette Tonn; Jönköping University; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compacted graphite iron; Spheroidal graphite iron; Solidification; Microsegregation; Porosity; Kompaktgrafitjärn; segjärn; stelning; mikrosegregation; porositet;

   Abstract : An improved understanding of solidification of compacted graphite iron (CGI) is necessary to predict shrinkage related casting defects. Spheroidal graphite is not only found in ductile iron (SGI) but usually also in CGI, but its characteristics and role in this material is less understood. READ MORE

7. 5. On the solidification of compacted and spheroidal graphite irons

   Author : Björn Domeij; Attila Diószegi; Jönköping University; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compacted graphite iron; Spheroidal graphite iron; Solidification; Microsegregation; Kompaktgrafitjärn; segjärn; stelning; mikrosegregation;

   Abstract : A good understanding of the solidification process of a cast material is essential to understand how the combination of alloy composition and the casting process variables combines into the solid cast component and its performance. The wrong combination may result in poor performance or casting defects. READ MORE
