Abstract
Results from two complementary projects concerning shrinkage prediction in ductile iron castings are integrated: the first, a statistical approach to predictive modeling for process control using plant data; and the second, the development of a finite element model of ductile iron solidification. Each project is a distinct application of thermal analysis. Our integrated approach to the shrinkage problem provides a direct link between computer-aided design based on numerical simulation, and process control in the foundry based on thermal analysis.
