| Abstract Scope |
Integrating CALPHAD data and phase field modeling is the method of choice to quantitatively scrutinize complex phase transformations and microstructure evolution in multicomponent materials. By virtue of CALPHAD's capacity to furnish a thermodynamic portrayal of multicomponent systems, it enables prognostications regarding phase stability and composition as well as interface properties under diverse conditions. In parallel, phase field modeling engenders simulations of microstructural evolution, employing partial differential equations to depict the intricate interplay of thermodynamics and kinetics at the mesoscale. In this talk, we shall underscore the pivotal role played by CALPHAD data in the realm of quantitative phase field modeling and presents our efforts and progress in developing thermodynamic, kinetic, and property models and building the most accurate and reliable CALPHAD databases augmented by ab-initio calculations and ML. |
