Small-scale metal castings, small-scale metal/transparent composite structures and process to produce same

Andreas Mortensen, Yves Bellouard, Raphaël Charvet, Cyril Dénéréaz

The method comprises at least the following steps: - exposing a substrate to focused laser irradiation at a preselected series of locations that trace a subset of the substrate volume that is connected to the surface of the substrate; some subsets of subst ...

Stress-Strain Predictions of Semisolid Al-Mg-Mn Alloys During Direct Chill Casting: Effects of Microstructure and Process Variables

Jean-Marie Drezet, André Phillion

The occurrence of hot tearing during the industrial direct chill (DC) casting process results in significant quality issues and a reduction in productivity. In order to investigate their occurrence, a new semisolid constitutive law (Phillion et al.) for AA ...

Prediction of Hot Tear Formation in Vertical DC Casting of Aluminum Billets Using a Granular Approach

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Marie Drezet, André Phillion, Meisam Sistaninia

A coupled hydromechanical granular model aimed at predicting hot tear formation and stress-strain behavior in metallic alloys during solidification is applied to the semicontinuous direct chill casting of aluminum alloy round billets. This granular model c ...

Heterogeneous material micro-transfer by ink-jet print assisted mould filling

Jürgen Brugger, Grégoire Maxime Smolik, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto, Loïc Jacot-Descombes, Vaida Auzelyte

A novel combination of ink-jet printing (IJP) and micro-transfer moulding (μ-TM) for high-resolution, heterogeneous material microstructuring is demonstrated. First, IJP is used to accurately fill the micro-cavities in an elastomeric mould, thus avoiding t ...
