Prediction of grain structure in direct-chill cast Al–Zn–Mg–Cu billets using cellular automaton-finite element method
A cellular automaton-finite element (CA-FE) model was used to predict the solidification grain structure of permanent mold cast A7086 alloy. In this model, a Gaussian distribution of nucleation sites was adopted, and the Kurz-Giovanola-Trivedi model was extended to a multicomponent Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloy...
