Towards Digital Twin Creation Workflow for Secondary Aluminum Alloy for Automotive Components
摘要
The effect of metallic impuritiesImpurities on mechanical and corrosive properties of aluminum alloysAluminum alloy are well documented. It is attributed to the microstructural changes in the alloy. Especially precipitationPrecipitation of electrochemically active or brittle intermetallicIntermetallic particles is problematic for the final component’s integrity. In this work, a workflow is proposed to predict the microstructureMicrostructure of AlSi7Mg0.3 cast alloy, depending on the Fe and Cu impurityImpurities content and the corresponding corrosion and mechanical propertiesMechanical properties via a cascade of different simulationSimulation methods.
