Abstract:The low-pressure die casting (LPDC) process was experimentally and numerically studied to produce AlSi7Mg0.3 components such as steering knuckles. Steering knuckles are important safety components in the context of a vehicle’s suspension system, serving as the mechanical interface that facilitates the articulation of the steering to control the front wheel’s orientation, while simultaneously bearing the vertical load imposed by the vehicle’s weight. This work focuses on the development of a numerical model in … Show more
