Abstract Scope |
Material scientists have made progress in controlling alloy performance through microstructure quantification. However, attempts at numerically modeling microstructures have failed due to the complex nature of the solidification process. In this research, we present the AlloyGAN deep learning model to generate microstructures for castable aluminum alloys. This innovative model demonstrates its capacity to simulate the evolution of aluminum alloy microstructures in response to variations in composition and cooling rates. Specifically, it is successful to simulate various effects on castable aluminum, including: 1) the influence of Si and other elements on microstructures, 2) the relationship between cooling rate and Secondary Dendritic Arm Spacing, and 3) the impact of P/Sr elements on microstructures. Our model delivers results that match the accuracy and robustness of traditional computational materials science methods, yet significantly reduces computation time. |
