1. Machine Learning in Materials Science: Image Analysis Using Convolutional Neural Networks in MatCNN

   Courses | 03 Nov 2021 | Contributor(s):: Tiberiu Stan, Jim James, Nathan Pruyne, Marcus Schwarting, Jiwon Yeom, Peter Voorhees, Ben J Blaiszik, Ian Foster, Jonathan D Emery

     This course introduces fundamental concepts of artificial intelligence within the context of materials science and image segmentation. The two-week module was taught as part of a Computational Methods in Materials Science course at Northwestern University. The module is aimed at...

2. MatSci 395 Lecture 2.1: Solidification & X-Ray Computed Tomography

   Online Presentations | 07 Oct 2021 | Contributor(s):: Tiberiu Stan

3. Freezing by Radiation and Convection

   Teaching Materials | 16 May 2019 | Contributor(s):: Adam Powell

   Use radiation and a heat transfer coefficient to estimate the initial rate of solidification of the solid shell at the top of a casting while the temperature in the shell can be considered uniform, then set up the equation for mixed conduction/convection-radiation limited cooling.

4. Heat Conduction and Diffusion in Alloy Casting

   Teaching Materials | 16 May 2019 | Contributor(s):: Adam Powell

   Derive temperature and liquid concentration profiles during die casting of a roughly plate-shaped alloy part.

5. Cast-a-Box: Casting Conditions and Macroporosity

   Teaching Materials | 07 Apr 2019 | Contributor(s):: Adam Powell

   An illustration of three-dimensional finite difference simulation of heat conduction with phase change and complex boundary conditions, this requires students to adjust boundary conditions to make the top surface of a regular hexahedral "casting" to freeze last, eliminating...

6. Casting of a Cylindrical Part in a Thermally Resistive Mold

   Teaching Materials | 30 Mar 2019 | Contributor(s):: Matthew John M. Krane

   Use of integral analysis for development of approximate solution for solidification in cylindrical thermally resistive mold.
