[ 1 ] - INFLUENCE OF THE PRIMARY SOLIDIFICATION ON THE SECONDARY SOLIDIFICATION DURING SEMISOLID METAL (SSM) PROCESSING OF A356.0 ALUMINUM ALLOY BY MECHANICAL STIRRING

  Abstract:   The aims of this research were to investigate the effects of semisolid metal (SSM) processing parameters (i.e., shear rates –times – temperatures combinations) on the primary solidification products and isothermal holding duration, subsequent to cessation of stirring on the secondary solidification of Al-Si (A356) alloy.   The dendrite fragmentation was found to be the governing m...
