Study on Fractal Characteristics of Primary Phase Morphology in Semi-Solid A356 Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

Semi-solid A356 slurry was prepared by compound process, and the fractal characteristic of primary phase morphology was researched. The fractal dimensions of primary phase morphology in semi-solid A356 alloy were calculated by the calculating program written to calculate the fractal dimensions of box-counting in the imagine of morphology of semi-solid primary phase in A356 alloy. The results indicated that the primary phase morphology in semi-solid A356 prepared by compound process is characterized by fractal dimension, and the primary phase morphology prepared by the different technology parameters had different fractal dimensions. The primary phase morphology at the different position of ingot had the different fractal dimensions, which reflected the effect of solidified conditions at different position in the same ingot on the morphology of semi-solid primary phase
