Dynamic Modeling of Twin-roll Steel Strip Casting

We consider the problem of dynamic coupling between the rapid thermal solidification and mechanical compression of steel in twin-roll steel strip casting. In traditional steel casting, molten steel is first solidified into thick slabs and then compressed via a series of rollers to create thin sheets of steel. In twin-roll casting, these two processes are combined, thereby making control of the ...

Effect of Rolling Route on Microstructure and Tensile Properties of Twin-Roll Casting AZ31 Mg Alloy Sheets

Twin-roll casting AZ31 Mg alloy sheets have been fabricated by normal unidirectional-rolling, head-to-tail rolling, and clock-rolling, respectively. It has been demonstrated that head-to-tail rolling is the most effective to refine the microstructure and weaken the basal texture among the three rolling routes. Excellent integrated tensile properties can be obtained by the head-to-tail rolling. ...

Aluminium Foam and Magnesium Compound Casting Produced by High-Pressure Die Casting

Nowadays, fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are two of the main focal points in vehicle design, promoting the reduction in the weight of vehicles by using lighter materials. The aim of the work is to evaluate the influence of different aluminium foams and injection parameters in order to obtain compound castings with a compromise between the obtained properties and weight by high-pr...

Numerical and experimental study of AZ 31 - O magnesium alloy warm sheet forming

Lightweight materials have been studied widely at present. Because weight reduction while maintaining functional requirements is one of the major goals in industries in order to save materials, energy and costs, etc. As the lightest structural alloys, magnesium alloys offer great potential to displace the most commonly used materials, because its density is about 2/3 of aluminum and 1/4 of stee...
