COMPUTATION ANALYSIS OF MECHANICAL STRESS
IN A ALUMINUM ALLOY CASTINGS
This paper presents a theoretical mechanism for the formation of mechanical stresses in aluminium alloy castings EN AC-Al Si7Mg0,3 and the computational analysis of residual mechanical stresses in case of cylindrical parts, moulded from a mixture of green sand and of cast iron.
We present a comparison of the values mechanical residual stresses obtained by free and braked shrinkage for this alloy casting.
