Abstract Scope |
Existing engineering design tools can provide digital technology to model-based quantification approaches in material design. Geometric modeling techniques and automated volume meshing algorithms available in CAD/CAE technology can be used to close the gap efficiently between a 3D microstructure representation and a finite element simulation. 3D microstructure examples (Ni-base superalloy, Ti64, W-Cu, Al 7075-T651) will be presented to describe techniques to (i) prepare a 3D voxel dataset, (ii) create a valid geometric model, and, (iii) create finite element meshes. The critical differentiator in the presented toolset is the creation of the geometric model which provides a high-level domain description to support definition of material properties, boundary conditions, etc. Standard mesh generation algorithms can then be applied to create multiple finite element meshes which are not constrained by the original voxel size. |
