DESCRIPTION:
However, to the best of the author's knowledge, there have been no attempts to synthesize the information that can be used for engineering calculations pertinent to computational modeling of casting solidification. It helps foundries move into markets with more complex and technically demanding work. Accordingly, elements of PDE and numerical analysis, required to obtain a working knowledge of computational solidification modeling, have been introduced in the text while attempting to avoid the interruption of the fluency of the subject. Numerous modeling and calculation examples using the Excel spreadsheet as an engineering tool are provided. The book is addressed to graduate students and seniors in solidification science, as well as to industrial researchers who work in the field of solidification in general and casting modeling in particular.. Foundry reports indicate that solidification modeling is not only a cost-effective investment but also a major technical asset. This is in line with the main goal of the book, which is to educate the reade
Each topic begins with the description of the underlying physics, followed by the mathematics required to build analytical and numerical models. Additional course materials are available upon faculty request. From the Back CoverScience and Engineering of Casting Solidification, Second Edition covers the essentials of solidification science of metals and alloys at macro- and micro-length scales at cooling rates specific to commercial castings and rapid solidification processing. . The detailed coverage of casting defects will also make it useful to industrial practitioners of metal casting. The mathematical fundamentals necessary to build a working knowledge in the
Science and Engineering of Casting Solidification A classic text, essential to any engineer working with metal solidification.
