During the solidification of continuously cast ingots, thermally induced stresses generate casting errors as hot cracks, bending or residual stresses. Contraction mechanism and shrinkage due to solidification of the alloy which is in a pasty state induce occurrence of the above mentioned defects. Simulation of thermo - mechanical pro...

For the production of vertically perforated bricks with very good thermal insulation properties it is necessary to increase porosity of ceramic body. The most effective way to achieve this is the addition of organic substances into the clay mass. During the firing process combustion of these substances occures, leaving behind a large number of fine...
