Match the following solidification mechanisms with their descriptions:

Nucleation = Formation of nuclei in a molten material Grain growth = Process where nuclei grow to form crystals and grain structure Equiaxed grains = Roughly same size in all directions Columnar grains = Elongated grains with heat flow direction

Match the following types of defects in solids with their descriptions:

Grain boundaries = Regions between crystals with slightly disordered lattice and high diffusivity Imperfections = General term for any deviation from a perfect crystal structure Shell of equiaxed grains = Result of rapid cooling near a wall, leading to smaller grains Polycrystalline materials = Materials composed of multiple crystals with transition regions between them

Match the following statements about grain boundaries with their properties:

Low density in grain boundaries = Allows for high mobility and high chemical reactivity Transition from lattice of one region to that of the other = Characteristic feature of grain boundaries in polycrystalline materials Added grain refiner leads to smaller, more uniform, equiaxed grains = Purpose of adding a grain refiner to the material There is no such thing as a perfect crystal = Acknowledgment of the absence of perfect crystal structures

Match the following questions about defects in solids with their answers:

Can the number and type of defects be varied and controlled? = Yes, through material processing and treatment methods How do defects affect material properties? = Defects can influence mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of materials Are defects undesirable? = While some defects may be beneficial, most are undesirable due to their impact on material performance What are solidification mechanisms? = Processes involving nucleation, growth of crystals, and formation of grain structure during material solidification Signup and view all the answers

Match the following descriptions with terms related to imperfections in solids:

Regions between crystals with slightly disordered lattice and high diffusivity = Grain boundaries Result of rapid cooling near a wall, leading to smaller grains = Shell of equiaxed grains Materials composed of multiple crystals with transition regions between them = Polycrystalline materials General term for any deviation from a perfect crystal structure = Imperfections Signup and view all the answers

Solidification is the result of casting of molten material – 2 steps: Nuclei form, Nuclei grow to form crystals – grain structure. Start with a molten material – all liquid nuclei crystals growing liquid grain structure
