Acoustical and Optical Determination of Mechanical Properties of Inorganically-Bound Foundry Core Materials

Inorganically-bound sand cores are used in many light-metal foundries to form cavities in the cast part, which cannot be realised by the mould itself. To enable FEM simulations with core materials, their mechanical properties have to be measured. In this article, we adapt methods to determine the Yo...
