Abstract Scope |
The emergent multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs), commonly known as high entropy alloys, provide a vast compositional space to search for radiation-resistant materials for advanced nuclear reactor applications. However, the vast composition space of MPEAs makes identifying optimal alloys a complex task. In this presentation, we will introduce the application of machine learning strategies, specifically neural networks, to overcome this challenge. These models have proven to be effective and efficient in predicting defect migration energy barriers across the complete compositional spectrum of MPEAs.The successful implementation of this machine learning approach holds significant promise for developing a comprehensive database on defect kinetics for various multicomponent alloy systems. This innovation could significantly accelerate the alloy selection process, paving the way for engineering new alloy compositions with superior radiation performance. |
