Improvement and validation of Zamak die casting moulds

Design & Analysis of Pure Iron Casting with Different Moulds

In the present work it has been shown that FEA software like ANSYS may play an important role in predicting cast defect before the actual casting. Transient thermal analysis and Couple-Field analysis in ANSYS can predict temperature distribution and thermal stress distribution in the casting after solidification very accurately. This fact has been proved by validating a transient thermal analys...

Die Steels and Improved Productivity in Die Casting

Computer-Aided System for Multi-Cavity Die-Casting Die-Design

Die-design for the die-casting process is a time consuming and complex activity that requires domain knowledge and vast experience of the die-designer besides information about manufacturing resources, part geometry, delivery time and cost preferences, etc. Complexity of the die-design activity further increases in case of a multi-cavity die. Currently available die-design systems lack in the l...

Far Casting Cross-Validation

Cross-validation has long been used for choosing tuning parameters and other model selection tasks. It generally performs well provided the data are independent, or nearly so. Improvements have been suggested which address ordinary cross-validation’s (OCV) shortcomings in correlated data. Whereas these techniques have merit, they can still lead to poor model selection in correlated data or are ...

construction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers

the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...
