Advances in Aluminum Casting Technology - $110.00 each
|
This first international symposium documents the enormous progress that has been made in the quality and reliability of aluminum castings over the past several decades.
KEY FEATURES:
- Presented are 35 papers by international experts in the various leading-edge technologies related to aluminum casting
- Covers various types of casting processes including sand, semipermanent-mold, permanent-mold and die casting, as well as semisolid forming
- Discusses both aluminum-alloy and aluminum-matrix-composite castings
- Subjects range from die design to properties of the finished castings

| DESCRIPTION: |
|
This symposium focuses on the improvements of aluminum casting
quality and reliability through a better understanding of
processes and process variables.
It also explores the
latest innovations in casting-process design that allow
increasing use of the castings to replace complex assemblies
and heavy steel and cast-iron components in aerospace and
automotive applications.
Advances in
molten-metal processing technology, a better understanding of
mold-filling mechanisms and their effects on part performance,
and wider use of quenching techniques and media to control
distortion and residual stresses have all contributed to the
increasing reliability and wider use of aluminum castings.
