Описание: This book covers the basic mechanics of material behavior and presents the relationships between the yielding tendency of materials (their elastic and plastic characteristics) and the properties of metals. It includes newly developed methods and techniques to model behavior in order to predict behavior and response characteristics in service.
Описание: Introduction.- Influence of mould-metal interactions on the microstructure of castings - literature studies.- Mould sand system in foundry.- Methods of the mould sands quality assessment.- Reclamation of used mould sands.- The mould /casting interface phenomena.- General characteristic of the ductile and compacted graphite cast iron.- Influence of the technological parameters on the microstructure and quality of the castings surface.- Influence of the metal/mould processes on the mechanical parameters of the castings.- Model of the phenomena on the mould/casting interface.
