Aluminum, the most produced non-ferrous metal in the world, is highly regarded for its light
weight, high specific strength, and excellent thermal conductivity. With the continuous …

Ultrasonic melt processing attracts since the 1930 a lot of interest both from academic
researchers and industry. In the last 10 years the interest to ultrasonic melt processing grew …

This is the first monograph to comprehensively cover the effect of using power ultrasound to
refine and solidify aluminium and magnesium alloys. The author is widely regarded as a …

Argon degassing, ultrasonic degassing and a novel ultrasonic argon degassing treatment
were applied for the hydrogen removal of AZ91 magnesium alloy. The hydrogen …

The application of ultrasonic vibrations when casting aluminium alloys can improve the final
quality of castings. Moreover, ultrasound has no direct environmental impact as compared to …

Most bubbles contain a mixture of vapor and incondensible gases. While the limit cases of
pure vapor and pure gas bubbles are well studied, much less is known about the more …

In the manufacturing of micro/nanocomposite materials, micro/nanoparticles need to be
dispersed evenly into the base materials. However, due to their high surface-to-volume ratio …

Ultrasonic degassing of liquid metals has been studied over the last years, but it has been
limited to laboratorial scale experiments of low volumes of melt. In this work, the combined …

Ultrasonic processing was shown to be an efficient means of aluminum melt degassing with
benefits of being economical and environment friendly. The fundamental reason for …

The exsolution of gas molecules from gas–liquid mixtures plays a significant role in a wide
range of applications from industrial processes such as metal casting to subsurface flow of …
