Containerless solidifications of Ni-Si and Co-Al eutectic alloys were carried out using an 8 m drop tube. Molten alloy ejected into a drop tube was rapidly cooled and solidified during free fall. The microstructures of the ...

Gibbs-Thomson coefficient, solid-liquid interfacial energy and grain boundary energy are important parameters for people doing comparisons between experimentally observed solidification morphology and predictions from ...
