Interests: remelting processes
Interests: melting; casting; defects; fracture; creep; fatigue; hydrogen embrittlement; the central role that casting defects play, appearing to be the fundamental cause of the failure modes by fracture, including creep, fatigue, stress corrosion cracking, hydrogen embrittlement
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Many papers have been published relating to research on remelting processes, but not all of them are available to us online. In this Special Issue on Remelting, we aim to collect the latest work on the subject together in one publication which can be readily accessed. We invite you to participate by submitting your work to this issue. The subject area is restricted to the remelting processes, their ancillary material preparation areas such as vacuum induction melting, and property investigations relating to the processes. We particularly welcome contributions from the industry relating to experience in remelting practice. Remelting technology lies in the boundary between research and industrial application; as such, it is important that we use this readily accessible source to combine ideas from both aspects. We look forward to receiving your contribution and to the publication of a much-needed collection of work in this field.
