Properties of sand-cast magnesium alloys. Part VII: the effect of wall thickness on tensile properties of Mg-Al-Zn alloy castings / A. Couture and J.W. Meier.: M38-1/153-1965E-PDF
"It has been shown in earlier investigations that, under favourable solidification conditions (e.g., in premium-quality castings), high mechanical properties may be obtained regardless of wall thickness. In commercial castings, however, it is not always possible (or economical) to avoid some reduction of mechanical properties in heavier sections of the casting. The present investigation was carried out to explore the effect of section thickness on properties of alloys AZ 80, AZ91 and AZ92 in various temper conditions. To eliminate other factors affecting solidification conditions, all castings were produced using standard foundry practice for green sand casting, without the use of any chills or insulating materials"--Abstract, page i.
