Abstract Scope |
The CALPHAD method is known for being able to calculate multi-component phase diagrams with acceptable accuracy for practical applications. In recent years, CALPHAD has expanded beyond its original scope to a broader field of materials science and engineering. Firstly, by coupling with kinetic models, it has been used to simulate diffusion-controlled physical metallurgy phenomena, such as solidification, homogenization, diffusion, and precipitation. Secondly, integration with methods like the phase field method (PFM) enables the simulation of phase transformation and microstructural evolution in complex multi-component alloys. Thirdly, by interfacing with finite element method (FEM) software, it facilitates the simulation of microstructure evolution of complicated alloys during conventional manufacturing processes, such as forging and rolling. Prof. Rainer Schmid-Fetzer has made a significant contribution in the field of CALPHAD and applications. In this presentation, we will present examples of using the CALPHAD method for alloy design and processing optimization to honor his contribution. |
