This book provides an international update on the research and development that has taken place in the design and production of high quality castings. It includes comprehensive coverage of high quality castings, gating system design, process modeling, mechanical behavior and structure-process-property relationships. In addition, it explores in-depth the latest casting innovations in quality, reliability and process design. Topics covered include: Design of Filling and Feeding SystemsModeling of Casting ProcessesLiquid Metal ProcessingNew and Innovative Casting ProcessesStructure-Process-Property RelationshipsResidual Stresses in Castings (both experiment and modeling)Solidification and Microstructure of Cast AlloysCase Studies (illustrating process design and/or quality improvement for high quality castings) A collection of papers from the TMS 2009 Annual Meeting & Exhibition held in San Francisco, California, February 15-19, 2009.
