    | Abstract Scope | Mechanical properties of metallic alloys strongly depend on their microstructure. In particular, the structure and morphology of precipitates lead to distinct strengthening effects. Recently, it was shown that on the proper range of temperatures, in the fcc CuFeCo system, a twin-like microstructure is  formed within Iron rich precipitates. In this work, we applied the quasi-particle approach (QA) [1], recently derived from the continuous atomic density functional approach, to elucidate this phenomenon  during casting and aging process. The twinning structure with Kurdjumov-Sachs  orientation relationship, twin boundary structure, and fcc-bcc interface structure and propagation mode could be assessed thanks to large scale simulations.
