Abstract Scope |
Alloys by design, Additive Manufacturing, Thermoelectric Energy Conversion, Effective robust models connected to First-Principles, Open Gibbs energy minimizers are the items we expose in this contribution. Along the years the use of Gibbs energies sets describing thermodynamic equilibrium extended in such a way that alloy properties can be ad hoc designed and processes that include metastable states can be followed and optimized. Properties depending of alloy composition can be tuned. The inclusion of the electronic structure in the models brought the extrapolations to true predictions and new computational strategies allowed the fast use of concise and selected information in simulations of microstructures and continuum. All that evolution happened in the last 30 years and it is accelerating in the recent time, anticipating a development of materials science beyond the imaginable at the end of the last century. As a testimony of that facts, surrounded by scientists being formed in this environment, a report is given. |
