Abstract: This paper presents an image processing technique in order to predict the shape of a levitated aspherical droplet. The technique is of great importance to containerless materials processing. A ...

Abstract: A new indirect method to measure fraction solid in molten metals is presented. The method is based on the phenomena that when a metal sample (solid or liquid) rotates in a magnetic field ...

Abstract: We describe a novel approach to the mathematical modeling and computational simulation of fully three-dimensional, electromagnetically and thermally driven, steady liquid-metal flow. The phenomenon ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a new relationship between the opposing mechanical torque and the electric conductivity of a rotating liquid specimen in a permanent external magnetic field of constant ...
