ABOUT THE COURSE:

This course, Fundamentals of Casting and Solidification, offers an in-depth understanding of the principles governing metal casting processes, from melt flow and heat transfer to solidification dynamics. It integrates heat, mass, and fluid flow analysis with the study of microstructural evolution in cast metals. The course also covers practical aspects of gating and riser design, defect prevention, and process optimisation. By combining theory with application, it equips learners with the tools to design efficient casting systems and predict final material properties.
