Recently, the application of lightweight alloys, especially Al alloys, in the vehicle industry is gradually expanding, but there
Execute Summary – Core Research Objective: To compare the high-cycle fatigue behavior of AlSi9Cu3(Fe) aluminum alloy die castings produced using high-pressure die casting (HPDC) and vacuum-assisted die casting (VPDC) processes, and to elucidate the influence of casting defects on fatigue failure. – Main Methodologies: Non-destructive testing (NDT) methods (hydrostatic weighing, X-ray inspection, and computed tomography (CT)) were
Qi-gui Wang, Andy Wang & Jason Coryell Abstract Ultra-large aluminum shape castings have been increasingly used in automotive vehicles, particularly in electric vehicles for light-weighting and vehicle manufacturing cost reduction. As most of them are structural components subject to both quasi-static, dynamic and cyclic loading, the quality and quantifiable performance of the ultra-large aluminum shape castings is critical
Gerry GangWangJ.P.WeilerMeridian Lightweight Technologies, Strathroy, Ontario N7G 4H6, Canada Abstract The use of magnesium alloy high pressure die cast (HPDC) components for structural applications, especially in the automotive and transportation industries, where weight reduction is of a great concern, is increasing. As new applications are developing and existing applications are becoming more complex, there is a need
Keywords : aluminium alloy high Abstract High pressure die casting (HPDC) AlSi10MnMg alloy castings are widely used in the automobile industry. Mg can optimize the mechanical properties of castings through heat treatment, while the release of thermal stress arouses the deformation of large integrated die-castings. Herein, the development of non-heat treatment Al alloys is becoming
