Abstract:
Designing materials that contain complex microstructures and high performance is challenging using a reductionist approach to materials development. A powerful utility in this endeavor is the use of computational thermodynamic and kinetic tools. The integration of these tools into a systems-based materials design methodology that couples experimental research with theory and mechanistic modeling has been established to accelerate materials development. Microstructural properties can be expressed as thermodynamic parameters that are predictable by computational thermodynamic tools, while kinetic simulations can assist in elucidating processing-structure relationships to quantify microstructural evolution. This talk focuses on the high temperature magnesium alloy development as a model system and a new low-cost alloy is demonstrated with improved attributes to commercial high temperature magnesium alloys systems.
