The Solidification Characteristics of Aluminum Alloys, Vol. 3: Dendrite Coherency documents experimental data that can be used to better predict the solidification behavior of aluminum alloys. An atlas chapter is provided with data on dendrite coherency illustrated with full color photomicrographs.
The research results contained in this volume are a continuation of the efforts made between the American Foundry Society and SKANAluminum to extend the knowledge of aluminum casting alloys.
Keywords: aluminum, solidification, dendrite, gating, quality
