DOI: 10.3390/ma18102179
Abstract: The spatial distribution of equiaxed crystal zones during extra-thick slab solidification exerts a critical influence on the mechanical performance of the final product. This investigation establishes a dual-pathway control framework for solidification structure modulation, differentiating… read more here.
