Dendrite fragmentation by catastrophic elastic remelting
S. Ananiev, P. Nikrityuk, K. Eckert
The paper proposes a new fragmentation mechanism of dendrite arms. The theoretical basis of this mechanism is a shift in the thermodynamical equilibrium at the solid-liquid interfa…

Numerical study of the influence of an applied electrical potential on the solidification of a binary metal alloy
P. A. Nikrityuk, K. Eckert, R. Grundmann
In this work we study numerically the influence of a homogeneous electrical field on the fluid and heat transfer phenomena at macroscale and mesoscale during unidirectional solidif…
