Determining Alloy Nucleation Core Origin and Grain Refinement Strategy Based on the Dependence Degree of Content Difference

What is nucleation core origin during alloy solidification, especially for equiaxed grains? Different dependence degrees of the magnitude or occurrence of element content variation could shed light on this long-standing issue in actual large ingots. Here, based on etched surface height and grayscale...
