@ARTICLE{Gawrońska_E._Modeling_2012, author={Gawrońska, E. and O. Wodo}, number={No 4}, journal={Archives of Foundry Engineering}, howpublished={online}, year={2012}, publisher={The Katowice Branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences}, abstract={The paper presents a new numerical model of solidification processes in hypoeutectic alloys. The model combines stochastic elements, such as e.g. random nucleation sites and orientation of dendritic grains, as well as deterministic methods e.g. to compute velocity of dendritic tips and eutectic grains. The model can be used to determine the temperature and the size of structure constituents (of both, the primary solid phase and eutectics) and the arrangement of individual dendritic and eutectic grains in the consecutive stages of solidification. Two eutectic transformation modes, typical to modified and unmodified hypoeutectic alloys, have been included in the model. To achieve this, cellular automata and Voronoi diagrams have been utilized.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Modeling of Two-Stage Solidification: Part I Model Development}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/87169/PDF/26_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10266-012-0124-8}, keywords={Cellular automata, solidification, Microstructure modeling, Dendritic structure, Eutectic structure}, }
