Rheology of semi-solid aluminium alloys and its application in the study of material flow in die casting
The manufacture of semi-solid aluminium alloy components through thixocasting is gaining increasing acceptance in the industry. Processed in its semi-solid state, such alloys yield components which are nearer to net shape, with better structural integrity owing to less entrapped shrinkage and gas po...
