Abstract Scope |
Phenomenological models that accurately describe the high-temperature behavior of materials are crucial to the design and discovery of high-performance alloys. At the atomistic scale, these models must capture a range of structural and chemical disorder. Atomistic models can then be coupled with statistical mechanics techniques to derive thermodynamic, kinetic and chemo-mechanical descriptions of materials. In this talk, we will highlight recent theoretical advances that enable the rigorous coarse-graining of electronic structure calculations through statistical mechanics techniques. Outputs from our methodology can be used to inform continuum descriptions of microstructure and dislocation evolution in multi-component alloys. We will employ these techniques to model the high-temperature behavior of multi-component magnesium and refractory alloys. |
