  1. 1. Optimizing Porosity Predictions in Casting Simulation

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Sanna Kylström; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Porosity is a defect severely affecting component quality and performance. In order to improve predictions, simulations can be utilized to calculate possible initiation sites. READ MORE

  3. 2. Aspects of gating system improvement in a cast iron foundry

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Fahami Annan Green; Felix Göttfert; [2021]
    Keywords : Gating system; Cast iron; Foundry; Pouring basin; Offset step basin; Sprue; Ingjutssystem; Gjutjärn; Gjuteri; Gjutskål; Förskjuten steggjutskål; Nedlopp;

    Abstract : The gating system transfers the iron melt from the ladle to the void in the casting mould. The gating systems dimensions and designs are crucial for the success of a casting and a poor gating system is a leading cause of scraps. READ MORE

  4. 3. Optimisation of local material parameters : Optimising local material parameters in ductile cast iron cylinder head casting

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Katri Mäkinen; [2021]
    Keywords : Casting simulation; Material parameter; Ductile cast iron; Optimisation; Local material parameters; Silicon content; Pearlite; Ferrite;

    Abstract : The constantly tightening emission regulations demand the engines to be moreefficient, to get more power out of smaller engines. Higher engine loads andcomponent temperatures are causing more stresses to engine components. READ MORE

  5. 4. Die life prediction using High Pressure Die Casting simulations

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Halses Sebastian Sivertsen; [2020]
    Keywords : HPDC; simulations; aluminum alloys; MAGMAsoft;

    Abstract : Global trends in automotive industry for weight reduction drives an interest for casting of structural aluminum parts. High pressure die casting (HPDC) is chosen for this purpose since it enables manufacturing of large series parts where complexity and repeatability is demanded. READ MORE

  6. 5. HPDC Die design for Additive Manufacturing : Simulation and Comparison of Thermal Stresses in HPDC die designed for Additive Manufacture

    University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/JTH, Industriell produktutveckling, produktion och design

    Author : Ambareeksh Tharayil Pradeep; Mohammadali Baradaran; [2019]
    Keywords : High Pressure Die Casting; Additive Manufacturing; Finite Elements Analysis;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing has a great potential to benefit die manufacture by shortening the lead time considerably and lifting the limitations on design complexity imposed by conventional manufacturing techniques. However, AM has its own requirements that together are known as Design for Additive Manufacturing and account for the process limitations. READ MORE
