A method, device and article of manufacture for determining properties in a high pressure die cast component. Upon receipt of geometric information that corresponds to a location of interest within the component, a ray-triangle intersection relationship is used to calculate a wall thickness of the location of interest; this relationship is simplified by being used in conjunction with an octree-based relationship. One or more calculations are performed to determine a skin thickness based on the calculated wall thickness, and the skin thickness calculations are based on at least one of a logarithmic relationship, a polynomial relationship and a power law relationship. Changes in component shape or size may be taken into consideration to adjust the remaining skin layer thickness, such as that when the as-cast component is exposed to subsequent machining or related post-casting operations. From this, the properties are mapped to allow node-by-node variations in mechanical properties based on whether the node resides in the component skin region or core region.

Methods and apparatus for forming high aspect ratio metallic glass, including metallic glass sheet and tube, by a melt deposition process are provided. In some methods and apparatus a molten alloy is deposited inside a tubular channel formed by two concentrically arranged substrates, and shaped and quenched by conduction to the substrates in a manner that enables the molten alloy to vitrify prior to undergoing substantial shear flow. The deposition method allows the molten alloy to be deposited and formed while being quenched, without undergoing substantial shear flow.
