Abstract
Mechanical strengths and electrical conductivity are the very important engineering properties of lightweight aluminum (Al) alloys used in automobiles, especially for battery-powered electric vehicles (BEV). However, the main issue is that the mechanical properties and the electrical conductivity of Al alloys are mutually exclusive. This study aims to simultaneously improve both the tensile properties and the electrical conductivity of the squeeze as-cast Al-6wt% Si-3wt% Cu by modifying its microstructure with the addition of nickel (Ni) and strontium (Sr). In comparison to those of the alloy free of Sr and Ni, the additions of 0.03 wt.% Sr and 0.5 wt.% Ni in the Al-6Si-3Cu alloy significantly improved the ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and electrical conductivity. This was because the addition of Ni element, as a transition element, collaborated with Cu to form fine intermetallic Al-Cu-Ni phases for dispersion strengthening. Also, the modification of the Si morphology from micron needles to nanoparticles by the Sr addition enhanced both the strengths and electrical conductivity of the developed alloy.

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 it
