Application of Solidification Theory to Rapid Solidification Processing

Abstract

Solidification theory can be used to predict and control processes occurring during rapid solidification. Two papers prepared for publication provide results showing such predictions. (1) The effects of rapid solidification velocity on microstructure and phase solubility extension in nickel aluminum-chromium quasibinary alloys are reported. (2) Segregation behavior and microstructural spacings in silver-15 wt% copper alloys are reported as a function of solidification velocity around and below the transition velocity from cellular to banded microstructures.
