This EU GROWTH project aims to reduce lead times and improve quality in lost foam casting through innovative upgrades. Objectives include proposing a mathematical model and developing numerical methods to approximate it. Key numerical ingredients involve the level set method, domain decomposition, thermal coupling, fixed-mesh ALE method, and stabilized finite element methods for flow and heat equations. .
