Abstract Scope |
Complex Concentrated Alloys (CCAs), particularly body-centered cubic refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs), exhibit remarkable mechanical properties under extreme conditions, but their vast compositional range makes identifying optimal properties challenging. This study utilizes advanced computational technologies, including machine learning potentials and graph neural networks, to expedite the development of CCAs. We investigate the dislocation behaviors of model alloys through large-scale atomistic simulations, focusing on how chemical composition and local ordering affect the mobility of edge and screw dislocations, as well as the impact of lattice distortion and diffuse anti-phase boundary energy (DAPBE) on dislocation behaviors. The identified mechanisms allow us to fine-tune compositions for dislocation motion, and balance lattice distortion and DAPBE, aiming to uncover promising candidates quickly. Our molecular dynamics simulations, enhanced by a GNN model that integrates local atomic environment data, provide a promising approach for optimizing alloy compositions and processing methods, ultimately enhancing performance in aggressive environments. |
