Semi-solid metal (SSM) processing has been an attractive method for manufacturing near-
net-shape components with high integrity due to its distinct advantages over conventional …

The semisolid metal joining (SSMJ) process or thixojoining process has recently been
developed based on the principles of SSM processing, which is a technology that involves …

The semi-solid slurry of A380 aluminum alloy was prepared by the serpentine channel. The
effects of pouring temperature, curve number and curve diameter of the serpentine channel …

Semi-solid metal processing (SSM) is a modern metal forming technology offering net-shape
metal components of complex geometry in a one-step operation. The process relies on the …

In this paper, a relatively new approach is presented in order to predict the microstructure of
A356 using finite element technique and artificial neural network. In the training and test …

In this work, based on the A356 alloy, a novel Al–Si–Mg–Cu–Fe–Sr alloy with good
mechanical property and high thermal conductivity was developed. The semi-solid slurry of …

Semisolid stir joining of AZ91 alloy was investigated by using mechanical stirring and Mg–
25wt% Zn interlayer. A 2mm-thick interlayer was located between two 7.5 mm-thick AZ91 …

Semi-solid metal processing is the well-known technique used for the production of Al-
