The application of Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) in foundry practice

This article presents the latest tendencies within the scope of the application of computer simulation in the process of developing new solutions, including solutions in foundry practice. The functioning of Integrated Computational Materials Engineering is described, which is regarded as a leading tool for developing new materials, constructions and technologies in aerospace, automotive and maritime industries in the USA and the European Union. The functioning of ICME was studied in the process of developing a cast construction by modelling stresses of the cast at work, modelling alloy properties and the technology itself. Threats and benefits resulting from the application of ICME are also presented.
