Dendritic Growth in an Aluminum-Silicon Alloy
Unidirectional solidification experiments have been carried out on an Al-3 wt.% Si alloy as a function of temperature gradient, G and growth rate, V. The samples were solidified under steady-state conditions with...

Effect of the temperature gradient, growth rate, and the interflake spacing on the microhardness in the directionally solidified Al-Si eutectic alloy
An alloy of composition Al-12.6 wt.% Si was prepared using metals of 99.99% purity. Weighed amounts of aluminium and silicon were melted in the vacuum-melting furnace. This irregular eutectic alloys were direc...

Effect of growth rates and temperature gradients on the spacing and undercooling in the broken-lamellar eutectic growth (Sn-Zn eutectic system)
The Sn-Zn system has a eutectic structure of a broken lamellar type. Dependence of the broken-lamellar spacing λ and the undercooling ΔT on V and G were investigated, and the relationship between them was examine...
