modeling defects in castings.IntroductionThis work describes an international collaboration project that has been established betweenMississippi State University (MSU) and the CIDAUT Foundation in Spain. The project proposalwas recently awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the InternationalResearch and Education in Engineering (IREE) program.The research area to be investigated deals with the formation of defects during solidificationprocesses, and in particular, with the problem of the confluence weld in aluminum alloy castings.It is known that the separation of flow paths during casting can produce cracks upon rejoining ofthe fronts due to the interaction of oxide films. The situation has been scarcely studied, eventhough most
