This book elucidates the important role of conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer, mass transport in solids and fluids, and internal and external fluid flow in the behavior of materials processes. These phenomena are critical in materials engineering because of the connection of transport to the evolution and distribution of microstructural properties during processing. From making choices in the derivation of fundamental conservation equations, to using scaling (order-of-magnitude) analysis showing relationships among different phenomena, to giving examples of how to represent real systems by simple models, the book takes the reader through the fundamentals of transport phenome...

The latest in a series of proceedings from conferences sponsored by Engineering Conferences International (formerly the Engineering Foundation), this volume captures the current state of the art in the field of mathematical modeling of casting and welding processes. This edition deals with such traditional issues as microstructure formation, mushy zone rheology, segregation, microporosity, and thermo-mechanical simulation, as well as new themes reflecting industrial needs, including simulation of melting and solid separation in the melt (inclusion removal) and simulation of aggregate and porous materials (mold and core simulation). This book contains 90 papers as well as abstracts of invited talks. The proceedings focus primarily on the continuous development of tools for simulation of microstructure evolution, database and critical experiments, and shaped-casting simulation.
The 14th edition in the EPD Congress series, this volume is concerned with environmental issues, reflecting the increased significance of this facet of metals production and processing. A centerpiece of this volume is the proceedings on mercury management in metals production and recycling, an area in which the breadth of expertise within TMS provides a unique opportunity for comprehensive examination of the topic.
