techniques and has significant advantages over traditional subtractive manufacturing. The …

In this work, the effect of the growth rate (VL) and cooling rate (TR), primary dendritic arm
spacing (λ 1) and Al 2 Cu intermetallic phase on the microhardness was investigated during …

An experimental investigation on the role of solution time during the T6 heat treatment on the
scale of the secondary dendrite arm spacing (λ 2), morphology and distribution of Si …

The roles of growth direction and Si content on the columnar/equiaxed transition and on
dendritic spacings of Al–Cu–Si alloys still remain as an open field to be studied. In the …

The local microstructural heterogeneities in a single layer of laser clad hypereutectic Al-50Si
alloy over Al7075 substrate has been studied over different applied laser powers. The …

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 …

The increasing demand for reducing vehicle weight in the automotive and aerospace
industries has raised the need to develop improved structural aluminum-based alloys. Thus …

This review covers research aimed at finding the optimum composition and growth rate to
obtain a highly modified Al-Si alloy using directional solidification. Investigations of …

Mg-Si alloys were investigated in terms of their microstructural characteristics and tensile
properties, by varying solidification cooling rate and Si content. This type of investigation …

In this work, solidification and T6-heat treatment experiments were performed with the
Al7Si0. 3Mg alloy in order to investigate the effect of processes parameters on the …
