4. Numerical simulation of filling and solidification

4.1 The benefits of simulating physical phenomena

The production of a molded part involves a large number of physical, physico-chemical and technological parameters which, if poorly controlled, can lead to significant rejects. In particular, the development of molds is often long and costly if it relies solely on rules of thumb.

The need to reduce development times and costs has led to the development of numerical simulation of mould filling and part solidification.
