Abstract A simulation study on the effect of the “bull’s eye” in ductile iron on stress concentrations was done in this work. Using the model of graphite nodules in a cavity, a two dimensional plate ...

Nodular cast iron pipe, also known as ductile iron pipe, is a type of pipe made from ductile iron, characterized by its high strength and flexibility. Unlike traditional cast iron pipes, nodular cast ...

When the nodular iron is heated up for welding, the graphite nodules are burned away, leaving a porous and weakened joint. Jim's trade secrets and tricks to welding ductile iron are just that ...

Ductile Iron application for lightweight components is being limited by inability to produce as-cast carbide free thin (≤3 mm) wall parts [2] . This inability results from the formation of large ...

Data on the low and high cycle fatigue response as well as monotonie (non-cyclic) and cyclic flow properties are required by design engineers for the proper design of many components. Currently, there ...

Nodular Cast Iron Tubes, also known as ductile iron tubes, are a type of cast iron that features improved mechanical properties and enhanced strength compared to traditional cast iron. The unique ...
