In this work we present a ΓΏnite element formulation to simulate the ΓΏlling of thin moulds. The model has as starting point a 3-D approach using either div-stable elements, such as the Q2=P1 element (tri-quadratic velocities and piecewise linear, discontinuous pressures) or stabilized ΓΏnite element f

This paper presents a "nite element modelling of metal solidi"cation, applied to an aluminum}silicon alloy piston casting. Earlier studies on solidi"cation have been mostly con"ned to one-and two-dimensional problems whereas the present one deals with 3-D castings. It is assumed that the heat transf
A three-dimensional cellular automaton (CA) model has been coupled with finite-element (FE) heat flow calculation to predict the solidification grain structures in a Ni-base superalloy. In the present CA-FE model, Gaussian distribution of nucleation sites was adopted and the Kurz-Giovanola-Trivedi m
A numerical method for analysing an axisymmetric injection moulding process is presented. A consistent approximation to pressure is applied for a penalty function formulation of Galerkin's finite element method. To analyse the moving free surface and visualize the transient flow pattern, marker part
