International Journal of Cast Metals Research

Aims & Scope

The International Journal of Cast Metals Research is devoted to the dissemination of peer reviewed information on the science and engineering of cast metals, solidification and casting processes.

Assured production of high integrity castings requires an integrated approach that optimises casting, mould and gating design; mould materials and binders; alloy composition and microstructure; metal melting, modification and handling; dimensional control; and finishing and post-treatment of the casting.

The Journal reports advances in both the fundamental science and materials and production engineering contributing to the successful manufacture of fit for purpose castings.
