DETAILED FORMATTING INSTRUCTIONS
PAPER UPLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
All authors are expected to provide a full paper for the conference. To upload your paper, return to the abstract/paper site http://abstracts.scolars.com/conferences/McWasp/index.php , and log in as an existing user. From the main page, select My Abstracts, to see a list of abstract submitted, and then select the Details/Uploads button for the abstract you wish to submit the paper for. Then select Choose File, select your file, and press Choose, and then Save to start the upload. The upload may take a few minutes, depending on file size and traffic at the time you are uploading. If the upload is successful, you will receive a message that your file has been saved, and you will see the filename appear next to 'Current File'. If the upload fails, you will receive an error message. If nothing happens, it likely means your firewall is blocking the upload. If the upload fails or is blocked, try again later, or from a different computer outside the firewall.
If you still can't upload, email the file to techsupport@scolars.com if it is less than 10MB. If it is over 10MB, email tech support for instructions.
ABSTRACT SUBMISSION IS CLOSED
Topics
Phenomena occurring at all length scales during solidification in casting and welding processes are covered by the conference. These include, but are not limited to:
- Heat transfer (diffusive, advective and radiative)
- Mass transfer (diffusive and advective)
- Fluid flow (single phase, multiphase and free-surface behaviour, newtonian and non-newtonian fluids, buoyancy effects, thermosolutal effects, turbulence, magneto-hydrodynamics, Marangoni)
- Coupling and multi-physics phenomena (thermal-stress, thermal-fluid, thermal-stress-fluid, electromagnetic)
- Segregation phenomena (micro, macro, exudation, multi-component, deformation induced)
- Micro and macrostructure formation (solid-liquid interface development, dendritic, eutectic, peritectic, columnar, equiaxed, kinetics, phase selection, crystallographic orientation)
- Defect formation (micro-porosity, shrinkage cavities, hot tearing),
- Thermodynamics (coupling with segregation and structure development),
- Numerical methods (volume averaging, finite differences, finite volume, finite elements, front tracking, sharp interface, phase field, cellular automaton, deterministic and stochastic, level set),
- Experimental methods for model validation (in-situ X-Ray imaging, tomography)
- Measurements for model applications and/or validation (thermophysical and thermomechancial properties, inverse methods, metallography, microscopy, composition, EBSD)
- Casting & Joining Technology (conventional, continuous, remelting, investment, permanent mould, lost foam, sand, near-net shape, welding, rapid solidification processes)
