Time-resolved synchrotron tomographic quantification of deformation-induced flow in a semi-solid equiaxed dendritic Al-Cu alloy

The rheology of semi-solid alloys has been studied by a novel in situ tomographic technique. Via extruding an equiaxed Al-15 wt.%Cu alloy, the inhomogeneous coherent compression of the α-Al grains was quantified, including the interdendritic channel closure and formation of a liquid extrudate. This...
