In fact, the lower cost compared to other alloys, and the good castability, which allow one to obtain near-net shape components in as-cast conditions, and the mechanical properties that can be obtained, are just some of the motivations that attract mechanical designers. However, correct design requires a good knowledge of the intrinsic correlation among alloy chemical composition, process parameters, microstructure (with casting defects) and mechanical properties. This book is aimed at collecting excellent and recent research experimental and theoretical works in this filed. Technological (say, wear resistance and weldability) and mechanical properties (say, Young modulus, static and fatigue strength) of different grades of cast irons, ranging from solution strengthened ferritic ductile iron to compacted graphite iron as well as white and nodular cast irons, are correlated with the alloy chemical composition, process parameters and casting dimension.Cast Irons History of engineering and technologybicsscabrasive wearboundary element method (BEM)carbide volume fractioncast ironchemical compositioncompacted graphite ironcomputational homogenizationcooling ratedrilling machinabilitydry machiningductile cast ironsductile ironeffective elastic propertieseffective Young's moduluseutectic carbidefatiguefinite elementsgravity casting process simulationhardnesshigh chromium cast ironshigh-chromiumhomogenizationimage analysislamellar graphite ironMatCalcmechanical propertiesmicro-CTmicrostructureminimum quantity lubrication (MQL)multiscale numerical methodsn/aniobium alloyingnodular cast ironperiodic boundary conditionsplasticity modellingpre-heatingprimary austeniterepresentative volume elements (RVEs)segregationsilicon solution strengthened ferritic ductile ironsimulationsolidification timespheroidal graphite cast irontensile teststhermal analysisthicknessultimate tensile strengthweldabilityHistory of engineering and technologyFerro Paoloedt1310954Ferro PaoloothBOOK9910557285703321Cast Irons3029948UNINA
