1. Overview: 2. Background: Lightweighting in the automotive industry is crucial for improving fuel efficiency. Aluminum and magnesium castings have been utilized for this purpose for a considerable time, gaining significant traction since the mid-1970s. Aluminum castings offer a 30-50% mass reduction compared to steel, while magnesium castings provide a 40-60% reduction. However, existing aluminum
1. Overview 2. Research Background This research is based on the premise that weight reduction through the use of lightweight materials in the manufacturing of fuel-efficient transportation systems is an effective method for improving fuel economy and reducing harmful emissions. The increasing use of aluminum alloys in the automotive industry presents significant opportunities for weight
Abstract: This research paper investigates the die casting process for automobile oil pans using heat-resistant magnesium alloys, aiming to replace the currently used aluminum alloy. The study uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and experimental die casting to evaluate the process parameters and material properties for optimal performance and defect reduction. The primary focus is
1. Overview: 2. Background: The Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, enacted in 1975, mandated improvements in the average fuel economy of North American cars and light trucks. While initial increases were required from Model Year (MY) 1978–MY 1985, significant increases weren’t seen until MY 2011. Currently, rising fuel economy requirements are scheduled through MY
