Microstructure-Based CZE Model for Crack Initiation and Growth in CGI: Effects of Graphite-Particle Morphology and Spacing

Compacted graphite iron (CGI) is an engineering material with the potential to fill the application gap between flake- and spheroidal-graphite irons thanks to its unique microstructure and competitive price. Despite its wide use and considerable past research, its complex microstructure often leads...
