    Investigation of the performance of an expandable polystyrene injector for use in the lost-foam casting process

    A significant portion of casting defects in the lost-foam casting (LFC) process can be traced back to a lack of consistency in the expandable polystyrene (EPS) foam pattern. The present study focuses on determ...
