Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Investigate the formation of oxide defects in cast aluminium alloys as a result of instability of advance of the liquid front during filling.Investigate the filling behaviour of some actual castings, using computer simulation, to identify susceptible locations, and the severity of the defects in these locations.
