| Abstract Scope |
This presentation will focus primarily on an historical perspective of research activities completed under the supervision of Professor Srolovitz while he was faculty in the Materials Science and Engineering Department at the University of Michigan. These topics include molecular statics simulations of segregation to surfaces in binary cubic oxides, and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of the chemical vapor deposition of diamond thin films. In addition, overviews will be provided on selected work conducted both before and after this period, including the effects of elevated g-forces on dendritic solidification, Potts model simulations of the instability of the Hillert grain size distribution, front-tracking simulations of grain growth in deformed metals, measurements of accelerated grain growth at cryogenic temperatures, and validation of crystal plasticity predictions using digital image correlation on deformed oligocrystals. |
