The casting process and cooling rate determine the morphology of authentic silicon particles produced in aluminum alloys. slow alloy through Lost Foam Casting (LFC) method a result low mechanical properties. purpose this study was effect added Strontium (Sr) modifier to A356 on microstructure properties LFC method. Aluminum alloys are melted using crucible poured at temperature 730 oC surface p...

The analysis of steady state creep in a rotating disc made of Al-SiCp composite having variable thickness has been carried using Sherby’s constitutive model. The creep parameters have been evaluated using the available experimental results in the literature using regression analysis. Three variations in the thickness (constant, linearly and hyperbolic varying thickness) of the disc have been co...

The paper details the studies carried out on a dual-size particulate composite prepared by stir casting using A 356 aluminum alloy and B4C powders. Three compositions, viz., A356 plus 2% (44µm size 105µm in 1:1 ratio), 4% (3:1 6% (1:3 ratio) were cast finger molds, from which test specimens for hardness tensile tests as well metallography. Vickers tests, microstructure analysis an optical micro...

Abstract Background Advance care planning (ACP) conversations are associated with improved end-of-life healthcare outcomes and patients want to engage in ACP their providers. Despite this, rarely occur primary settings. The objective of this study was implement through adapted Serious Illness Care Program (SICP) training sessions, understand provider (PCP) perceptions implementing into practice...

A comprehensive methodology that takes into account alloy solidification, shrinkage-driven interdendritic fluid flow, hydrogen precipitation, and porosity evolution has been developed for the prediction of microporosity fraction in aluminum A356 alloy castings. The mathematical models presented are implemented in a computational framework consistent with those of commercial casting codes, allow...
