Recent advances in hot tearing during casting of aluminium alloys
Hot tearing is one of the most severe and irreversible casting defects for many metallic materials. In 2004, Eskin et al. published a review paper in which the development of hot tearing of aluminium alloys was evaluated (Eskin and Suyitno, 2004 ...

Elimination of misrun and gas hole defects of investment casting TiAl alloy turbocharger based on numerical simulation and experimental study [PDF]
Casting technology of thin-wall TiAl alloy turbochargers was studied by investment casting and numerical simulation. Misruns and gas holes were the main defects observed in preliminary work due to the poor fluidity of alloy, and to gas entrapment.

Casting and Casteing Indian Diplomacy
Abstract In this essay, I look at a curious intersection – the emergence of Indian diplomacy in the interwar era and the end of indentured labor. A genealogical reading suggests that Indian diplomacy takes “birth” primarily to articulate the political and civic rights of the new, seemingly upper caste Indian, in contrast to the lower caste “coolie” of ...

Physical modelling of tundish slag entrainment under various technological conditions [PDF]
This paper deals with the issue of physical modelling of vortexes creation and tundish slag entrainment over the mouth of the nozzle into the individual casting strands. Proper physical model is equivalent to the operational continuous casting machine No.
