Using the Gleeble test, the effects of [Mn/S] ratios and the presence of sulfides on the high-temperature fracture morphology of heavy-section steel castings were analysed via the observations of the microstructures. The specimens for which the [Mn/S] ratio was in the range of 60~80 showed a ductile fracture morphology with an area reduction of more than 60%, while some specimens with similar [Mn/S] ratios showed a brittle fracture morphology with an area reduction of 0.0% due to the liquidation of sulfides at the grain boundary. The fracture morphology was classified into three types in the Gleeble high-temperature tensile test specimens. The first type showed dimple formation at the grain boundary, the formation of globular MnS sulfides, and plastic deformation of sulfides at an elevated temperature, indicating a needle-point type of ductile fracture with area reductions of 96.0~97.8%. The sec-ond type was a knife-edge type brittle fracture with an area reduction of 0.0% due to the film-type liquidation of sulfides at the grain boundary, band-type liquidation, and the liquidation of a terraced nipple pattern. The third type was the typical ductile fracture with an area reduction of 31.3~81.0%, in accordance with the mixture of dimples with in the grains and terraced nipple pattern at the grain boundary.

【This study is focused on the effect of $Al_2Ca$ as a modifier on eutectic Si modification of A356 alloy. Microstructural observation was carried out for as-cast, as-solution treated and as-aged samples. Solution treatment and aging were performed for 2, 4, 6 and 10 hrs at $540^{circ}C$ and $170^{circ}C$ , respectively. Although A356 alloy, which $Al_2Ca$ was added, has no significant difference in as-cast phases with normal A356 alloys, it shows much more modified eutectic Si, grain refinement and improved tensile property both in as-cast and as-heat treated conditions. TGA result shows that $Al_2Ca$ added A356 alloy has a certain improvement in oxidation resistance.】

The effect of the mold preheat temperature on the solidification crack strength was investigated in AC2B aluminum alloy. A tension type apparatus as part of a solidification crack test which could measure the stress-strain relationship quantitatively was utilized. The evaluation of the solidification crack strength with varying mold preheat temperatures was performed by the test procedure established in this research. When the mold preheat temperatures were 250C, 150C and 50C, the solidification crack strengths were found to be 7.8 Kgf/cm, 12.9 Kgf/cm and 28.6 Kgf/cm, respectively. In the same way, when the mold preheat temperatures were 250C, 150C and 50C, the corresponding temperatures of the failure sites were 610C, 600C and 571C, and the calculated solid fractions were 14.0%, 29.3% and 50.8% when the specimens failed, respectively. The solidification crack strength increased in proportion to the solid fraction of the failure site. The solidification crack strength obtained in this test is assumed to reflect the effects of metallurgical factors on the thermo-plastic characteristics of a solidifying alloy such as the grain size of the solid, the grain morphology, and the distribution of solid grain.

The relatively low conductivity of conventional Mg-Al alloys often limits their areas of application. Therefore, several attempts to develop new high-conductivity magnesium alloys have been made recently. In this research, A Ce-rich rare-earth (RE)material and zinc were added to magnesium which contained no aluminum. As the RE and Zn content were increased, both the hardness and tensile strength were gradually increased, despite the fact that the electrical conductivity decreased slightly. The effects of an aging treatment on the conductivity and mechanical properties of Mg-RE-Zn alloys were also investigated. The electrical conductivity did not change according to the heat treatment conditions; however, the mechanical properties could be enhanced by proper aging heat treatments.

Abstract Efforts have been made to develop new silicon-free aluminum casting alloys that possess high electrical and thermal con-ductivity. In this research Al-Fe-Cu-Mg alloys with various Cu and Mg contents were investigated for their various properties. Asthe Cu or Mg content was increased, the electrical conductivity gradually decreased, while the tensile strength of the Al-Fe-Cu-Mgalloy tended to be improved. It was found that fluidity was generally inversely proportional to the Cu content, but the alloys con-taining 1%Mg showed considerably low fluidity, regardless of the Cu content.

Numerical solution of thermal stress by CAE analysis could be an effective method in product development stage of castings to predict and treat the problem of solidification cracking of castings. Quantitative stress-strain data are necessary, in this case. Tension type apparatus of a solidification crack test which can measure stress-strain relationship quantitatively was developed and the test procedure was established by this research. Solidification crack strength obtained from the following test procedure could be utilized to evaluate it in terms of effect factors on thermo-plastic characteristic of solidifying alloy such as grain size of solid, grain morphology, distribution of solid grain, etc. Proposed test procedure is as follow: Prediction of temperature at the failure site of solidification cracked specimen by computer simulation of solidification, Calculation of solid fraction of the failure site from thermodynamic solution of solidification under Scheil condition.

In recent years, Mg and its alloys have attracted a great deal of attention due to their low density, relatively excellent castability, and straightforward recyclability. Mg alloys have been widely applied to various industrial fields, and are representatively used in automotive and electronic parts. According to previous researches, the electrical conductivity of Mg alloys greatly decreases with increasing Al content. However, with the addition of Zn and/or Cu, the electrical conductivity of Mg alloys is maintained or slightly increased, and improved mechanical properties are obtained as well. On this basis, Mg-Zn-Cu alloys have been investigated in the present study with a focus on the effect of adding Zn and Cu on the electrical conductivity. The Zn and Cu contents ranged from 4 to 6wt.% and 0 to 1.5wt.%, respectively. Ternary Mg-Zn-Cu alloys have been prepared by gravity casting in a steel mold. In the as-casting condition, the electrical conductivity of Mg-Zn-Cu alloys showed a linear increasing trend with decreasing Zn and increasing Cu contents. Furthermore, impact values of Zn = − 1.5 and Cu = 2.5 were determined for these alloys by electrical conductivity tests.

Furthermore, impact values of Zn = − 1.5 and Cu = 2.5 were determined for these alloys by electrical conductivity tests.","PeriodicalId":16318,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Korea Foundry Society","volume":"35 1","pages":"100-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75083841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thixo-extrusion of semi-solid 7075 aluminum alloy and the mechanical properties of its extrudates were investigated. The semisolid alloy was prepared by a cooling slope cast. In other to perform thixo-extrusion, semi-solid 7075 aluminum alloy billets were reheated at the reheating conditions reported in a previous study. The maximum extrusion pressure in thixo-extrusion was 615MPa. This was lower than that of conventional hot extrusion (P max = 940MPa) at the same extrusion conditions due to the increased fluidity of the alloy billet in the semi-solid state. The values of Rockwell hardness (scale B) at the extrusion direction of the as thixoextruded bar were 48~53HRB and the difference in Rockwell hardness between the transverse direction and the extrusion direction was 5HRB or less. The results show that thxio-extrusion of semi-solid 7075 Al alloy improves the workability and anisotropic with the extrusion direction compared with hot extrusion of the conventional alloy.
研究了7075半固态铝合金的触点挤压及其挤压物的力学性能。采用冷却斜铸法制备了半固态合金。在另一种进行触点挤压的方法中,在先前研究中报道的再加热条件下对半固态7075铝合金坯料进行再加热。触相挤压的最大挤压压力为615MPa。在相同挤压条件下,由于合金坯料在半固态状态下的流动性增加,这一数值低于常规热挤压(P max = 940MPa)。触变挤压棒材在挤压方向的洛氏硬度(标尺B)值为48~53HRB,横向与挤压方向的洛氏硬度差不超过5HRB。结果表明:与常规合金热挤压相比,半固态7075铝合金热挤压在挤压方向上改善了加工性能和各向异性;

Abstract Permeability is the ability of a material to transmit fluid/gases. It is an important material property and it depends on mouldparameters such as grain fineness number, clay, moisture, mulling time, and hardness. Modeling the relationships among thesevariable and interactions by mathematical models is complex. Hence a biologically inspired artificial neural-network technique witha back-propagation-learning algorithm was developed to estimate the permeability of green sand. The developed model was used toperform a sensitivity analysis to estimate permeability. The individual as well as the combined influence of mould parameters onpermeability were simulated. The model was able to describe the complex relationships in the system. The optimum processwindow for maximum permeability was obtained as 8.75-10.5% clay and 3.9-9.5% moisture. The developed model is very useful inunderstanding various interactions between inputs and their effects on permeability.Key words: Green sand mould, Permeability, Neural networks, Sensitivity analysis
