Microstructural characterisation related to hot tearing of Al-Cu sand mould castings
In this paper, the hot tearing behaviour in Al-(4.86)%Cu sand mould castings was preliminary investigated by means of microstructural examination and image analysis. A dog-bone pattern was employed for the realisation of the castings and three Al-Cu alloys with different Cu and Si contents were use...
