Abstract:
This paper investigated the effect of inoculant, Al-5Ti-1B in conventional and semi-solid casting A356 aluminium alloy. A356 aluminium alloy was melted at 850 oC and poured at 680 °C directly into the steel mould and on the inclined slope into steel mould. Inoculant was added in various percentages of 1 wt.%, 2 wt.%, 3 wt.% and 3.5 wt.% in A356 aluminium alloy melt. Microstructure and microhardness were characterized using optical microscope and Vicker’s microhardness tester. The addition of master alloy up 3.5 wt.% Al-5Ti-1B in conventional casting refined dendritic structure with average grain size of 33.41 μm. The microstructures of semi-solid A356 aluminium alloy with addition of Al-5Ti-1B consist of equiaxed structure of α-Al. Further addition of Al-5Ti-1B refined the globular structure of α-Al. The higher hardness was achieved for A356 alloy prepared using semi-solid with addition of 3.5 wt.% of Al-5Ti-1B.

Abstract:
Al-Si-Mg casting alloys, such as Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy A356, are heat treatable and can be precipitation hardened to the T6 temper condition. However, Al-Mg-Si casting alloys (5xx series) are generally not considered to be heat treatable. These 5xx series castings are known for good castability and good resistance to corrosion, especially in marine environments. This paper investigates the extent to which 5xx series alloys could possibly be artificially aged. The influences of artificial ageing time on the overageing characteristics of both Al-Mg-Si and A356 casting alloys have been studied. A356 aluminium alloy castings were produced using the CSIR rheo-high pressure die casting process (R-HPDC). Al-Mg-Si alloys were cast using permanent mould casting. The rate of overageing of these alloys is of importance for potential higher temperature applications. The overageing characteristics of Al-Mg-Si and A356 aluminium alloys have been investigated at an artificial ageing temperature of 190°C for ageing times up to 128 hours. It is shown that the rate of overageing of Al-Mg-Si casting alloys is lower than for alloy A356. This could possibly result in the use of these alloys in applications at temperatures that are higher than where alloy A356 can be employed. It also allows the possibility of using the 5xx series alloys as an alternative to other Al-alloys for R-HPDC applications.

Abstract:
Phase Transition Cooling (PTC), using the absorbed latent heat during the melting of phase transition cooling medium to cool and solidify alloys in the process of casting, is a new casting technology. Specimens of A356 casting aluminum alloy were prepared by this method in the paper. The new heat treatment process (cast and then aging directly without solid solution) of A356 alloy was performed. For comparison, the conventional T6 heat treatment (solution and then aging treatment) was performed too. The mechanical properties of A356 alloy with different heat treatments were measured by tensile strength testing methods and microstructures of the alloy with different heat treatment process were investigated by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-rays diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) too. The results show that ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of A356 alloy with the new heat treatment process is much higher than that with conventional heat treatment while the elongations with the two heat treatment processes are very close. This is due to the grain refinement obtained after PTC processing.

Abstract:
In the present work, a 2-pole linear electromagnetic stirrer (LEMS) is developed to study the effect of stirring during solidification of aluminium alloys. The stirrer design entails the placement of a stack of coils around the mold to generate a primary motion that recirculates along the longitudinal direction. The stirrer is first tested and validated by measuring the electromagnetic forces on solid aluminum cylinders of different diameters as a function of excitation current. The alloy to be stirred and solidified is placed in a cylindrical graphite mould located in the annulus of the LEMS. A suitable cooling arrangement is provided at the bottom of the mould to extract heat from the melt, in order to produce a rheocast billet inside the mould. Rheocasting experiments with A356 aluminium-silicon alloy are performed using a stirring current of 250A, in order to assess the effect of electromagnetic stirring on microstructure formation. The resulting microstructures and cooling curves with stirring are compared with those obtained without stirring.

Abstract:
In this project, the addition of scandium (Sc) into A356 aluminium alloy was studied for its effect on the mechanical properties after gravity die casting process. Scandium addition was administered at the weight percentages of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3. The results obtained in this work revealed that scandium can significantly enhance the mechanical properties of A356 alloy in terms of tensile strength, hardness and charpy impact strength. In general, the addition of 0.2 wt% Sc in A356 alloy was found to be able to achieve the maximum tensile strength of 172.94MPa as compared to 136.03MPa for sample without Sc. No significant improvement in tensile strength was found when more than 0.3wt% added to the alloy. As for hardness, the sample with 0.3 wt% Sc attained the maximum Vicker’s hardness of 86.60 HV as compared to 76.48 HV for unmodified A356. Similarly, the addition of 0.3wt% Sc in A356 can achieve highest impact energy of 2.71J as compare to 1.09J for unmodified A356.

Abstract:
In this paper, a numerical model for friction welding of thixo-cast materials is developed, which includes a coupling of thermal effect and plastic deformation using a finite element method (FEM). As the constitutive equations for flow behavior of materials for a thixo-cast material are expected to be different from those of conventionally cast material of the same alloy, the necessary material data are experimentally determined from isothermal hot compression tests of the A356 thixocast alloy. The Johnson-Cook model has been employed to represent the flow behavior of the thixocast A356 alloy. The purpose of this FEM analysis is to provide better understanding of the friction welding process of thixo-cast material, and to obtain optimized process parameters before an actual welding is carried out.

Abstract:
The in-situ Ti alloying of aluminium alloys was fulfilled by electrolysis, and the material was made into A356 alloy and used in automobile wheels. The results show that the grains of the A356 alloy was refined and the second dendrites arm was shortened due to the in-situ Ti alloying. Trough 3-hour solution treatment and 2-hour aging treatment for the A356 alloy, the microstructures were homogeneous, and Si particles were spheroid and distribute in the matrix fully. The outstanding mechanical properties with tensile strength (σb≥300Mpa) and elongation values (δ≥10%) have been obtained because the heat treatment was optimized. Compared with the traditional materials, tensile strength and elongation were increased by 7.6~14.1% and 7.4~44.3% respectively. The qualities of the automobile wheels were improved remarkably.

Abstract:
Rheological behavior of semi-solid slurries forms the backbone of semi-solid processing of metallic alloys. In particular, the effects of several process and metallurgical parameters such as shear rate, shear time, temperature, rest time and size, distribution and morphology of the primary phase on the viscosity of the slurry needs in-depth characterization. In the present work, rheological behaviour of the semisolid aluminium alloy (A356) slurry is investigated by using a high temperature Searle type Rheometer using concentric cylinders. Three different types of experiment are carried out: isothermal test, continuous cooling test and steady state test. Continuous decrease in viscosity is observed with increasing shear rate at a fixed temperature (isothermal test). It is also found that the viscosity increases with decreasing temperature for a particular shear rate due to increasing solid fraction (continuous cooling test). Thixotropic nature of the slurry is confirmed from the hysteresis loops obtained during experimentation. Time dependence of slurry viscosity has been evaluated from the steady state tests. After a longer shearing time under isothermal conditions the starting dendritic structure of the said alloy is transformed into globular grains due to abrasion, agglomeration, welding and ripening.

Abstract:
Grain refining has been studied in the semi-solid-metal (SSM) casting by addition of master alloy Al-5Ti-1B using inclined slope. A356 aluminium alloy was melted at 850 °C and poured at 660 °C on the inclined slope into the steel mould. Grain refiner was added in various percentages of 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0% in A356 aluminium alloy melt. Microstructure and microhardness were characterized using optical microscope and Vicker’s microhardness tester. The addition of master alloy Al-5Ti-1B not only refined but also increased the globularity of the primary α-Al particles. The higher hardness was achieved with 1% addition of master alloy Al-5Ti-1B.

The heat treatment cycles that are currently applied to semi-solid processed components are mostly those that are in use for traditional dendritic alloys. These heat treatments are not necessarily the optimum heat treatments for SSM processing. The T6 heat treatment of aluminium alloys is a relatively expensive process and a reduction in treatment times would be advantageous. In order to improve the T6 heat treatment cycle for rheocast alloy A356, the effect of various parameters on the quality index were investigated. These included solution treatment time, natural aging time, artificial aging temperature and artificial aging time.

Abstract:
The studied material is an A356 Al alloy, used to produce engine cylinder heads for the automotive industry by die casting process. The material displays a quite coarse dendritic microstructure in a eutectic matrix, with a mean grains size of 25 microns, intemetallic precipitates and porosities. The tensile properties are strongly affected by testing temperature, with a quite sensitive drop of the Young's modulus, the Yield stress as the temperature was raised. The isothermal fatigue life dropped of markedly (approximately 10 times) when the testing temperature is raised from 120 to 280 °C, under strain control. From the themomechanical in-phase cyclic tests, with temperature varying from (120 to 280 oC), it was possible to observe that life is quite similar to the isothermal fatigue test at 280 oC. In this case, the more sensitive damage caused the in-phase mechanical and thermal cycle take place at the highest temperature. Relaxation tests indicated two distinct behaviors, with the temperature of 240°C being a threshold. At lower temperatures, the material hardens cyclically whereas it softens cyclically at higher temperatures. From the fatigue crack growth results, it was observed that temperature and wave shape has a strong influence on the crack growth rate as well as on the stress intensity threshold. Considering sinusoidal wave shape (10 Hz), as the temperature increased the DKth decreased and the crack propagation rate increased. However, the rate as da/dN change with temperature is quite similar, as an indicative that the micromechanism of crack growth has not changed due to the high frequency used, and it was due only to loss of mechanical strength. An elastic-visco-plastic non-isothermal constitutive law was identified for the material. For the cast material studied in this work, the mechanical behavior parameters are statistically distributed. However, it was shown that the model was able to reproduce, with a reasonable approximation, the stress - strain relationship at different temperatures, for the isothermal and anisothermal cases.

Abstract:
Metal fatigue is a recurring problem for metallurgists and materials engineers, especially in structural applications. It has been responsible for many disastrous accidents and tragedies in history. Understanding the micro-mechanisms during cyclic deformation and combating fatigue failure has remained a grand challenge. Environmental effects, like temperature or a corrosive medium, further worsen and complicate the problem. Ultimate design against fatigue must come from a materials perspective with a fundamental understanding of the interaction of microstructural features with dislocations, under the influence of stress, temperature, and other factors. This research endeavors to contribute to the current understanding of the fatigue failure mechanisms. Cast aluminum alloys are susceptible to fatigue failure due to the presence of defects in the microstructure like casting porosities, non-metallic inclusions, non-uniform distribution of secondary phases, etc. Friction stir processing (FSP), an emerging solid state processing technique, is an effective tool to refine and homogenize the cast microstructure of an alloy. In this work, the effect of FSP on the microstructure of an A356 cast aluminum alloy, and the resulting effect on its tensile and fatigue behavior have been studied. The main focus is on crack initiation and propagation mechanisms, and how stage I and stage II cracks interact with the different microstructural features. Three unique microstructural conditions have been tested for fatigue performance at room temperature, 150 °C and 200 °C. Detailed fractography has been performed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD). These tools have also been utilized to characterize microstructural aspects like grain size, eutectic silicon particle size and distribution. Cyclic deformation at low temperatures is very sensitive to the microstructural distribution in this alloy. The findings from the room temperature fatigue tests highlight the important role played by persistent slip bands (PSBs) in fatigue crack initiation. At room temperature, cracks initiate along PSBs in the absence of other defects/stress risers, and grow transgranularly. Their propagation is retarded when they encounter grain boundaries. Another major finding is the complete transition of the mode of fatigue cracking from transgranular to intergranular, at 200 °C. This occurs when PSBs form in adjacent grains and impinge on grain boundaries, raising the stress concentration at these locations. This initiates cracks along the grain boundaries. At these temperatures, cyclic deformation is no longer microstructure- dependent. Grain boundaries don’t impede the progress of cracks, instead aid in their propagation. This work has extended the current understanding of fatigue cracking mechanisms in A356 Al alloys to elevated temperatures.

Abstract:
Al-7%Si-0.3Mg (A356) foundry alloy is strontium modified and heat treated in order to obtain optimum mechanical properties. To date, the role that strontium modification plays in the precipitation process during the heat treatment is not well understood. The objective of the present work is to obtain a better understanding of the effect that strontium modification and heat treatment parameters exert on the properties of heat-treated Al-7%Si-0.3Mg alloy. The investigation consisted of a systematic measurement of the electrical conductivity and matrix microhardness of heat-treated coupons under different process conditions. Tensile properties were also measured and a transmission electron microscopy study of critical samples was done. The results obtained in this work indicate that the heat treatment of this alloy can be optimized. Solution heat treatment and artificial aging can be reduced and natural aging manipulated. The use of a continuous heating artificial aging is proposed. During the heat treatment of the A356 alloy under certain conditions not only does the precipitation of the Mg2Si occur, but also that of silicon. It was found that strontium modification does not influence the precipitation kinetics of the Mg2Si, but it does retard the precipitation of the silicon out of the matrix.

Abstract:
The dissolution mechanism and kinetics of a number of strontium master alloys in liquid aluminum and A356 alloys have been investigated. The dissolution behaviour of the strontium alloys was found to show marked differences depending on strontium content. Dilute strontium alloys containing less than 63 weight percent Sr were observed to exhibit simple dissolution in both melts. The dissolution rate and the recoveries of these alloys were found to increase with increasing melt temperature. Over the temperature interval of 675-775$ sp circ$C dissolution was determined to be mass-transfer controlled with associated activation energies of 10-20 kcal/mole. Experimental rate constants for dissolution showed good agreement with a mass transfer correlation expressed as k = (0.67(Gr.Sc)$ sp{1/4}$ + 0.58(h/r)) (D/h). The dissolution of high strontium master alloys $(>$63 wt. pct. Sr), unlike the dilute alloys, was accompanied by the formation of various intermetallics. Additions at low melt temperatures yielded the exothermic formation of those intermetallics that have the lowest Sr content as seen in the relevant phase diagram, i.e., SrAl$ sb4$ in liquid Al and SrAl$ sb2$Si$ sb2$ in liquid A356. Due to low reaction rates at these low melt temperatures, these intermetallics formed as dispersed particles that could easily dissolve in the melt yielding high recoveries. At high melt temperatures, the associated chemical reactions yielded, as products, the higher Sr intermetallics which formed with little or no exothermicity. These intermetallics were observed to be scarcely soluble in the melt resulting in low strontium recoveries. The dissolution times of these alloys were found to show good agreement with calculated values based on a two-stage dissolution model comprising an initial exothermic reaction period and a subsequent free dissolution period. The strontium master alloys were classified in two groups; the high Sr alloys that are efficient at low temperatures of 675-7

Resumo: Este trabalho investigou o uso da extrusão em canal angular (ECA) na produção de matéria-prima para tixoconformação visando à obtenção de uma rota simples e eficiente na formação de microestruturas globulares. Para tanto, uma liga de alumínio A356 foi submetida a um único passe ECA e, em seguida, reaquecida ao estado semissólido a 580°C. Dessa forma, pôde-se determinar a evolução morfológica e os mecanismos envolvidos na formação da pasta metálica, a influência do tratamento isotérmico na evolução microestrutural no estado semissólido, o comportamento de deformação durante a compressão a quente e o comportamento mecânico em tração do material tixoconformado. Os resultados indicaram que apenas um passe ECA foi suficiente para gerar uma pasta metálica refinada e globular apenas com o reaquecimento da matéria-prima. O engrossamento da microestrutura durante o tratamento isotérmico foi controlado principalmente pelo mecanismo de Ostwald ripening, fato comprovado pelo baixo valor da constante taxa de engrossamento K, o que mostrou a estabilidade dessa pasta no estado semissólido. As amostras exibiram comportamento tixotrópico típico com baixos valores de viscosidade aparente, na faixa de 10^2 a 10^3 Pa.s para as taxas de cisalhamento testadas. Por fim, as amostras tixoconformadas apresentaram valores de ductilidade e resistência à tração superiores aos das amostras fundidas e deformadas por um passe ECA
Abstract: This work investigated the use of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) for the production of raw materials for thixoforming in order to obtain a simple and efficient processing route to generate globular microstructures. Therefore, an A356 aluminum alloy was processed by one ECAP pass, and then reheated to the semisolid state up to 580°C. Thus, it was possible to determine the morphological evolution and mechanisms involved in the formation of the semisolid slurry, the influence of isothermal treatment on microstructural evolution in the semisolid state, the deformation behavior during hot compression tests and the tensile properties of the thixoformed material. The results indicated that a single ECAP pass was sufficient to promote a refined and globular semisolid slurry. Microstructure coarsening during the isothermal treatment was mainly controlled by Ostwald ripening, which was verified by the low rate constant K, showing the stability of the reheated material in the semisolid state. The samples exhibited typical thixotropic behavior with low apparent viscosity ranging from 10^2 to 10^3 Pa.s over the applied shear rates. Finally, the thixoformed samples exhibited values of ductility and tensile strength superior to the as-cast and ECAPed samples

Abstract:
Aluminium alloys used in automobile applications are generally heat treated to obtain a desired combination of strength and ductility. The knowledge in treatment temperature as well as the time of this process is essential for optimum results. In this paper A356 alloy is subjected to different heat treatment conditions and examined its effects on the mechanical properties and corrosion behaviour. The solutionizing temperature and time were 540°C and 1 hour respectively, followed by 24 hours of natural aging and the artificial aging temperature and time were 180°C and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6 hours respectively. The standard T6 heat treatment process performed were used as reference in-order to compare the effect of artificial ageing. The solutionizing temperature for 1 hour and artificial ageing time of 4.5 hours produced peak compressive strength when compared to other aging times.

Abstract:
In recent years, conventional materials are rapidly replaced by advanced aluminium composites due to its lighter in weight and high-performance characteristics. These materials find vast applications in automotive components because of its excellent combination of properties such as high specific strength, high specific stiffness, better dimensional stability and enhanced wear characteristics. The present work is focused on hybrid composites manufactured by stir casting route where the A356 alloy is the matrix and SiC + Moringa Oleifera Ash (MOA) particles as reinforcements. The influence of Moringa Oleifera Ash (MOA) particles (self-lubricant) on the wear behaviour of the composites is studied. Fabricated composites are tested on a pin-on-disc test rig at dry sliding wear conditions to study the influencing input parameters such as load, sliding distance and composites. A356 Aluminium alloy is reinforced with 5% SiC as primary reinforcement, varying MOA particles with 1% and 3% as secondary reinforcement. The design of experiments (DOE) approach using Taguchi method was adopted to perform the experiments according to L9 orthogonal array and analyse the results. From Taguchi analysis, combination of best suited values is identified and reported. Inquest of influential wear test parameters and its effect on wear and friction is determined using the signal-to-noise ratio and analysis of variance (ANOVA).
