Which defect increases where sand casting internal geometry complicates solidification?

💡 Explanation

Hot tearing increases because restrained thermal contraction during solidification sets up tensile stresses exceeding material strength; therefore hot tearing is more prevalent, rather than uniform cooling which would minimize casting stress.
