DOI: 10.3390/ma15051802
Abstract: The internal coupled electromagnetic melt treatment (ICEMT) method is firstly proposed to produce high-quality and large-sized aluminum alloy billets. A three-dimensional model was established to describe the ICEMT process of direct chill casting (DC casting).… read more here.
