Metamodels’ Development for High Pressure Die Casting of Aluminum Alloy

Simulation is a very useful tool in the design of the part and process conditions of high-pressure die casting (HPDC), due to the intrinsic complexity of this manufacturing process. Usually, physics-based models solved by finite element or finite volume methods are used, but their main drawback is t...
