  1. 6. On the Volume Changes during the Solidification of Cast Irons and Peritectic Steels

    Author : Abel Tadesse; Michael Vynnycky; Hasse Fredriksson; Jacques Lacaze; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Volume changes; Solidification; Peritectic steel; Micro- and Macro-shrinkage; LVDT; GCI; NCI; Hypo- and Hypereutectic; Austenite; DTA; Dilatometry; BSE; Nuclei; Flake graphite; SDAS; Eutectic cells; Undercooled graphite; Simulation; Cooling rate; Microsegregation; austenite; Metastable region; δ-ferrite; Stable phase diagram; Grain refinement; Strain.; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis work deals with the volume changes during the solidification of cast irons and peritectic steels. The volume changes in casting metals are related to the expansion and/or contraction of the molten metal during solidification. Often, different types of shrinkage, namely macro- and micro-shrinkage, affect the casting quality. READ MORE

  2. 7. Slag inclusion formation during solidification of steel alloys and in cast iron

    Author : Sofia Adolfi; Hasse Fredriksson; Karin Hansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solidification; segregation; precipitation; inclusions; inoculation; EMPA; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the formation of segregation and inclusions during solidification of steel and cast iron. A better understanding of the formation mechanism should result in decreasing fraction of defects during solidification of ingot and strand material. READ MORE

  3. 8. Volume Change Effects during Solidification of Alloys

    Author : Bahman Korojy; Hasse Fredriksson; Brij K. Dhindaw; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Volume change during solidification is an important concept in achieving of casting soundness. The solidification shrinkage can cause different defects in the ingot casting as well as the shape casting. The volume change due to phase transformation during solidification is the other concept which has to be studied. READ MORE

  4. 9. Microstructure Modelling of Additive Manufacturing of Alloy 718

    Author : Chamara Kumara; Per Nylén; Johan Moverare; Lars-Erik Lindgren; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phase-Field Modelling; Additive Manufacturing; Phase Transformation; Solidification; Heat Treatment; Superalloy; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : In recent years, additive manufacturing (AM) of Alloy 718 has received increasing interest in the field of manufacturing engineering because of its attractive features compared with those of conventional manufacturing methods. Nevertheless, owing to the inherent nature of the process, the build material is exposed to complex thermal conditions that affect the microstructure. READ MORE
