Advances on Hot Extrusion and Simulation of Light Alloys
Description:
This special collection comprises 36 peer-reviewed papers giving an insight into the latest advances in extrusion technology and its simulation. The papers cover a wide range of topics and are grouped into the categories of: benchmark, microstructure, seam welds and composite extrusion, material flow and constitutive equations, dies and tools and process control and optimization. However, many other topics, such as new materials (magnesium and its composites) and new composite profiles, are covered.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
This volume contains 36 selected, peer reviewed papers from the September 2009 International Conference on Extrusion and Benchmark. The keynote papers discuss combined numerical simulation and microstructure characterization for prediction of physical properties in extruded aluminum alloys, and an integrated approach towards predictive control of extrusion weld seams. The remaining papers are presented in sections on microstructure and heat treatment, seam welds and composite extrusion, material flow and constitutive equations, dies and tools, and process control and optimization.
