Learn how to calculate the hot crack susceptibility during solidification for an aluminum-silicon alloy in our latest video. Hot crack susceptibility, also known as hot tearing, is one of the most common and serious defects encountered during the casting of aluminum alloys. The information gathered from this type of calculation can help you choose the right alloy composition to reduce the occurrence of hot cracking. | Thermo-Calc Software

Learn how to use TC-Python, the Python language-based SDK that allows users to link Thermo-Calc calculations with many other programs, such as NumPy and SciPy. This video shows you how to set up a basic calcuation in TC-Python and then how to set up a "for loop" over it. It also shows you how to use the included examples and gives you resources to learn more about Python. | Thermo-Calc Software
