▪ Abstract An overview of the phase-field method for modeling solidification is presented,
together with several example results. Using a phase-field variable and a corresponding …

This is the first account of the history of our understanding of, and ability to model,
solidification microstructures. Its objective is to retrace the scientific steps made, from the …

The columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) is a microstructural transition that has to be
controlled during certain solidification processes. CET models and microstructure selection …

Modelling of heat flow has become a standard practice in many solidification processes.
Effort is currently being made to couple heat flow calculations to related macroscopic …

Using synchrotron X-ray high speed radiography, the fragmentation and refinement of pre-
existing primary Al 2 Cu intermetallic dendrites induced by ultrasonic melt processing in a …

Presents developments in computational techniques pertaining to moving boundary
problems in fluid dynamics. It describes several computational techniques which can be …

A detailed analysis of the microstructures produced in an autogenously welded single
crystal of Fc− 15Ni− 15Cr was performed in order to investigate the relationship between …

In this work a mixed Eulerian–Lagrangian technique is devised, hereinafter abbreviated as
ELAFINT (Eulerian–Lagrangian Algorithm For INterface Tracking). The method is capable of …

The influence of electromagnetic stirring (EMS) on grain refinement has been studied for two
copper-base alloys (Cu-1 wt pct Ni-1 wt pct Pb-0.2 wt pct P and Cu-4 wt pct Zn-4 wt pct Sn-4 …

A one-dimensional solidification model has been developed to study the directional
solidification of dendritic alloys. It is based on the resolution of the heat flow equation using a …
