Description
Summary:Direct strip casting is an important new technology in steelmaking. By eliminating rolling and reheating, it has both reduced costs and opened the way for more fine-grained and higher-strength steels and alloys. This important book provides a review of the principles and applications of direct strip casting to steel, iron, aluminium, magnesium, titanium and other alloys. It includes case studies and covers such topics as control of cast structure and properties, secondary processing and fabrication, simulation and modelling techniques.
