In the present study the research status of metals solidification under the influence of external fields in Shanghai University, which is one of the main academic institutions in China, was introduced. The special self-developed equipments to produce external fields were presented. At present, many kind of external fields have been developed in Shanghai University, including ultrastrong magnetostatic field, ultrasonic, electric current pulse, pulsed magnetic field, and magneto oscillation etc. Also, the research interests in the metals solidification under external fields were systematically illuminated. Besides, the application prospect of these techniques was reviewed, especially in the metallurgy industry.
