Aluminium with silicon as alloying element, form a class of material providing the most
significant part of all material casting manufactured materials. These alloys have a wide …

This work is focused on the prediction of elastic behavior of short-fiber reinforced composites
by mean-field homogenization methods, which account for experimentally determined and …

The relationship between microstructure and mechanical behavior of the eutectic phase in
hypoeutectic Al–Si alloys is analyzed empirically using two experimental and thirteen …

Mechanical stress–strain curves are estimated by means of numerical simulation in order to
analyze and compare the mechanical properties of a real strontium-modified Al–Si alloy with …

In general, mechanical properties of Al-Si alloys strongly depend on the morphology and
arrangement of microconstituents, such as primary aluminium dendrites, silicon particles …

In this study, we present a novel strategy to the method of finite elements (FEM) of linear
elastic problems of very high resolution on graphic processing units (GPU). The approach …

Nowadays Al-Si alloys have an increasing share in automobile parts and are seen as a
promising material for new structural applications that require an improved strength and …
