These proceedings of the 12^th International Conference on Semi-Solid Processing of Alloys and Composites contain the papers which were presented at the conference, held in Cape Town (South Africa) between the 8th and 11^th October 2012. The aim of these international conferences is to provide a forum where the leading researchers, engineers and industrialists in this field can gather in order to share their work and knowledge, and hold lively discussions concerning current fundamental issues in semi-solid metal processing.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The contents are divided into 5 distinct sections: Microstructure and Properties; Process Development; Modeling, Simulation and Rheology; Materials Development and Alloy Design and Industrial Applications.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: This proceedings volume collects selected, peer-reviewed papers from an October 2012 conference held in South Africa. The papers concentrate on the advancement of fundamental knowledge and the development of materials and industrial processes for semi-solid manufacturing of high performance metal components. Work is grouped in sections on microstructure and properties, process development, modeling and simulation, rheology, material development and alloy design, and industrial applications. Some specific topics include industrial applications of rheoforming technology in China, manufacturing of composite and hybrid materials by semi-solid forming, and squeeze flow of semi-solid slurries. Other subjects include numerical simulation on rheo-diecasting of magnesium matrix composites, high-temperature flow behavior of semi-solid steel alloys, and production of titanium alloy components by semi-solid forming. The book includes b&w images.
