Abstract:The solidification of metals and alloys and the resulting microstructures, which as a function of thermal and solutal parameters can evolve as planar, cellular and dendritic, are important from a practical point of view, since they strongly influence the properties and quality of the final product. In many practical situations it is impracticable to develop analytical solutions permitting reliable predictions of microstructural growth during unsteady-state solidification conditions. The Phase Field method has … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
