Modelling of wire-arc additive manufacturing process is an effective way for adapting the optimum parameters as well as understanding and managing the sequences of layer-by-layer deposition. Some of these parameters such ...

A study of the spatial occurrence of iron precipitation in a high performance multicrystalline silicon (HPMC-Si) sample is presented. The separated effects of grain-boundaries, sparse intra-granular dislocations, and ...

Direct chill (DC) casting of aluminum involves alloys employing different solute elements. In this article, a qualitative analysis and comparison of macrosegregation formation is presented for three different alloy systems: ...

Solid-liquid Interface response function or the analysis of kinetic interfacial conditions under rapid solidification setting occupies a central role in solidification research. With the concepts of solute drag and solute ...

Macrosegregation is a result of the interplay of various transport mechanisms, including natural convection, solidification shrinkage, and grain motion. Experimental observations also indicate the impact of grain morphology, ...

In Czochralski monocrystalline silicon growth, structure loss (SL) is the loss of the mono-crystalline structure. It represents a significant loss of productivity. In this work, this phenomenon is investigated by statistical ...
