The flow and solidification of metal is presented with reference to Bernoulli?s Law, Fick?s 2nd law, and Chvorinov?s rule, with detailed mathematical analyses and calculations. Foundry practices involving mold design, molding sand characteristics, melting furnaces, testing/NDT, and QC are explained, including both conventional casting processes and recent advances in casting technologies. There are around 120 diagrammatic illustrations, which have been properly labelled to enhance the understanding of readers. One of the salient features of the book is the inclusion of an industrially-oriented project; the key solution of the project is presented with the aid of mathematical analysis and diagrams. The metal-casting design project cultivates managerial skills enabling the reader to work effectively as an engineer/manufacturing manager in an industry. Presents an industry-oriented, casting-design project with key solution; Features 200 worked numerical examples, 120 diagrams, and 100 questions with answers; Develops skills of manufacturing quality machine components at a low cost incorporating lean, eco-friendly manufacturing. 410 0$aMechanical Engineering Series,$x2192-063X 606 $aMetals 606 $aMaterials 606 $aBuilding materials 606 $aIndustrial engineering 606 $aProduction engineering 606 $aMetals and Alloys 606 $aMetal-organic Frameworks 606 $aSteel, Light Metal 606 $aIndustrial and Production Engineering 615 0$aMetals. 615 0$aMaterials. 615 0$aBuilding materials. 615 0$aIndustrial engineering. 615 0$aProduction engineering. 615 14$aMetals and Alloys. 615 24$aMetal-organic Frameworks. 615 24$aSteel, Light Metal. 615 24$aIndustrial and Production Engineering. 676 $a620.16 700 $aHuda$b Zainul$0936395 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910988283703321 996 $aMetal Casting Engineering$94347106 997 $aUNINA
