Abstract

Solidification morphology is affected by restraining the volume in which growth may occur. Such conditions occur during the solidification processing of composite materials. Microstructure maps are developed in this article to show the dominant fields of different morphologies which are expected during growth. Both wetting and non-wetting walls are considered. Tip temperatures of restrained solidification morphologies are additionally discussed.
