Author:Khomenko, MD; Makoana, Nkutwane W; Pityana, Sisa L; Mirzade, FKHDate:Jul 2021A new coupled heat transfer and solidification kinetics model is developed for the optimization of microstructure during laser additive manufacturing applications. The Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov equation is applied in a self-consistent ...Read more
Author:Grobler, AJ; Holm, Stanley R; Van Schoor, GDate:2017An accurate thermal model will commonly require empirical parameter identification, specifically for the convection coefficients and interface resistances. A high-speed permanent magnet synchronous machine test platform, equipped with various ...Read more
Author:Curle, UA; Möller, H; Wilkins, JDDate:Feb 2011It is demonstrated experimentally that by using the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Rheo Casting system and high pressure die casting it is possible to semi-solid process and cast into a shape unmodified Al–Si binary eutectic ...Read more
Author:Bopape, Mary-Jane M; Engelbecht, F; Randall, DDate:Oct 2012As part of ongoing model development work being done at the CSIR, a model that
can be used to study thunderstorms has been developed. In this case we are showing its application over the Western Pacific ocean
in the tropics where observation ...Read more
