Solidification And Gravity IV (Materials Science Forum)

This collection of papers provides the most up-to-date information available for researchers and engineers who are interested in any aspect of the field of solidification processes. Herein, theoretical analyses are presented, as well as studies of the technological problems which are associated with solidification in various gravitational environments. The topics covered range from fundamental aspects and modelling, to practical engineering applications. The contents are presented under the headings of: Rapid Solidification; Microstructure Evolution of Eutectics, Peritectics and Monotectics; Single Crystals; Melt Flow, Macrosegregation; Particle Inclusion, Foam, Composites; Microsegregation, Mushy Zone; Microgravity Effect; Continuous and Mould Casting; Thermophysical Properties; Author Index and Keyword Index. This work will be of great interest to those who come into contact with solidification, in any of its guises.A.
