title = "Effect of microstructure on mechanical properties of horizontal continuous cast billet",
abstract = "Homogeneity in the metallurgical characteristics and mechanical properties of horizontal continuous cast products is vital for industrial application. In the present work, the microstructure and mechanical properties of a horizontal continuous cast two-phase brass billet have been studied. Impact strength and hardness variations were examined and the phase composition and porosity studied with image analysis software. Distinct differences in mechanical properties were observed between the upper, middle and lower parts of the billet, which are explained in terms of the morphology and size of the phase in the microstructure. Hardness variation in the length of billet is higher in upper area but impact strength is higher in lower areas.",
