The effect of billets extruded by a curved and flat-face die on the semisolid characteristics and tensile properties of thixoformed products (2013)
Journal Article

In this study, A356 aluminum billets in different extruded states are used as feedstock for the thixoforming. The extrusion billets were fabricated by a hot extrusion process through a flat-face and a curved die. After the induction reheating of the...

Coarsening of equiaxed microstructure in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy through SIMA processing (2011)
Journal Article

In the present study, the coarsening mechanism of equiaxed grains in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy, treated via strain induced melting activation process, was investigated. The kinetics of equiaxed grain growth in the semisolid state of... Read More about Coarsening of equiaxed microstructure in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy through SIMA processing.

A study on semisolid processing of A356 aluminum alloy through vacuum-assisted electromagnetic stirring (2011)
Journal Article

In this study, a vacuum-assisted electromagnetic stirring system was designed and manufactured in order to minimize the defects such as porosities in the semisolid processing A356 aluminum alloy by electromagnetic stirring (EMS). A sleeve cooling sys... Read More about A study on semisolid processing of A356 aluminum alloy through vacuum-assisted electromagnetic stirring.

Study on the effects of the compression ratio and mushy zone heating on the thixotropic microstructure of AA 7075 aluminum alloy via SIMA process (2010)
Journal Article

The effects of compression ratios on the microstructure evolution of semisolid Al7075 alloy produced by the strain induced melt activation (SIMA) process were investigated. The samples were cold deformed by compression into the different heights up t...
