On Weibull Mixtures in Mechanical Properties of Castings

Abstract

A review of Weibull mixtures in the mechanical properties of castings is provided. Two distinct scenarios which result in Weibull mixtures in the mechanical properties of castings are introduced: (i) multiple defect distributions that lead to failure by the same mechanism are present in the casting, and (ii) there are multiple failure mechanisms in effect regardless of the type and size of defects. These two scenarios are discussed in detail with examples from the literature.
