Abstract Scope |
Efficiently reproducing complex microstructures is essential for optimizing material properties in advanced steel processing. Our research leverages deep generative models to enhance the prediction and control of microstructure evolution. The initial model, designed for image processing, combined a vector quantized variational auto-encoder for microstructure characterization and a pixel convolutional neural network to link these characterizations with processing parameters and properties. To enhance model accuracy and interpretability, we incorporate physics-based elements such as phase transformation and precipitation kinetics. This integration enables the extraction of detailed material knowledge, which is essential for informed decision-making in material design and processing. We aim to demonstrate the potential of our approach by applying this enhanced framework to various advanced structural materials. This development showcases the possibility of integrating machine learning with physical principles to achieve more efficient and predictive material design. |
