| Abstract Scope |
Since their discovery in 2004, high entropy alloys (HEAs) have generated significant interest from the materials science community due to unique phase formation as well as reports of exceptional mechanical performance in select compositions. While the field of HEAs now understands that entropy alone does not dictate the phase formation in complex compositions, it continues to expand, discovering promising HEAs for various applications by approaching alloy design from a different direction than conventional alloy design. Two key and specific directions of research include the critical evaluation of the impact of atomic scale compositional fluctuations on alloy properties, and integrated computational materials engineering approach to developing refractory based HEAs with optimal mechanical behavior at elevated temperatures. Through this presentation the state of the art will be established in both of these areas of research and the efforts ongoing at the University of California Irvine will be presented and discussed. |
