| Abstract Scope |
Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) offers a robust framework for quantifying the causal relationships between welding process parameters and resulting material properties, a critical capability for optimizing engineering performance. This study develops a multiscale, physics-based material model to predict the impact of key welding parameters—including power and velocity of heat source input —on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties in austenitic steels. By integrating cellular automaton (CA) techniques with finite element analysis (FEA), we accurately simulate process-induced microstructures and the distribution of residual stresses within the welded joints.
These simulations establish causal links between welding parameters and final
properties, allowing for precise prediction and control of material properties such as hardness, toughness, and fatigue resistance. This ICME-driven methodology highlights the potential of computational models to advance materials design and process optimization in welding, leading to enhanced reliability and performance across manufacturing applications. |
