Optimal Filling of Test Dies for Evaluating Properties of Semi-Solid Alloys
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An investigative study was conducted on how two different dies designed to produce sound specimens for evaluating mechanical properties of semi-solid alloys could be filled optimally. The first die contains one cavity that produces a wedge with a sectional thickness varying from 19.05 mm (0.75 in) to 9.52 mm (0.375 in). The second die contains four cavities fed by a single runner, producing ASTM-type round bars with a diameter of 9.52 mm (0.375 in). Experiments were undertaken to cast partial and complete shots of A356 alloy test specimens under controlled injection conditions. Flow patterns developed from the moment the alloy entered the cavity were noted, including difficulties experienced in balancing flow in the four-cavity die. Microstructural abnormalities were observed in the bar specimens examined using optical and electron microscopy. It was found that control of filling and solidification in the wedge die was much easier and specimens produced did not result in any significant alloy segregation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
