Yu-Tong Yang, Zhong-Yuan Qiu, Zhen Zheng, Liang-Xi Pu, Ding-Ding Chen, Jiang Zheng, Rui-Jie Zhang, Bo Zhang & Shi-Yao Huang Abstract High-pressure die casting (HPDC) is one of the most popular mass production processes in the automotive industry owing to its capability for part consolidation. However, the nonuniform distribution of mechanical properties in large-sized HPDC products adds complexity to part property evaluation. Therefore, a methodology
Semi-solid Die Casting of Some Aluminum Alloys for Lightweight Automotive Components Part of the Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering book series (LNME) Abstract The use of light alloys in automotive applications has been rapidly increasing in the industry as a means to reduce fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Semi-solid forming process for Al-Si based alloys, which
