Characterisation of semi-solid deformation behaviour of aluminium-copper alloys via combined X-ray microtomography and finite element modelling

The production of aluminium sheet is expensive and energy intensive despite the reduced environmental impact during use. Twin roll casting is a method of directly producing aluminium alloys in near net shape directly to sheet at a fraction of the energy costs of conventional DC casting/hot rolling....
