Mesoscale modeling and simulation approaches provide a bridge from atomic-scale
methods to the macroscale. The phase field (PF) method has emerged as a powerful and …

This article provides an overview of recent advances, challenges, and opportunities in
multiscale computational modeling techniques for study and design of two-dimensional (2D) …

Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, of metals is transforming the fabrication of
components, in part by dramatically expanding the design space, allowing optimization of …

Mechanical properties like strength and hardness depend largely on microstructure. The
conventional methods to evaluate microstructure such as optical and electron-based …

A new phase-field modeling framework with an emphasis on performance, flexibility, and
ease of use is presented. Foremost among the strategies employed to fulfill these objectives …

The growth of uranium dendrites has been one of the critical issues in the electrorefining of
spent nuclear fuel for several decades. However, a comprehensive description of uranium …

The excellent mechanical properties of the Ni-based superalloy IN718 mainly result from
coherent γ ″precipitates. Due to a strongly anisotropic lattice misfit between the matrix and …

We study the epitaxial, columnar growth of (multiply oriented) dendrites/cells for a spot melt
in a polycrystalline Al–Cu substrate using two-dimensional, phase-field, direct numerical …

An integrated computational materials engineering (ICME)-based workflow was adopted for
the study of microstructure and property evolution at the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of gas …

Materials science gives theoretical and practical tools, while new modeling methods and
platforms provide rapid and efficient development, improvement, and optimization of old and …
