We briefly review the state-of-the-art in phase-field modeling of microstructure evolution. The
focus is placed on recent applications of phase-field simulations of solid-state microstructure …

Review of selected fundamental topics on the interaction between phase transformations,
fracture, and other structural changes in inelastic materials is presented. It mostly focuses on …

Abstract Based on the Ginzburg-Landau's theory, the free energy function of polycrystalline
system was modified by introducing an extra grain boundary energy, and a new two …

ABSTRACT A two-dimensional non-isothermal phase field model considering multiple
martensite variants which can describe the thermo-mechanical deformation of …

The purpose of this work is the development of a two-scale phase-field-based computational
model for coupled microstructure evolution and macroscopic mechanical material behavior …

The coupling between phase transformations and plasticity in shape memory alloys (SMAs)
is studied by developing a finite element framework in which the constitutive relation …

Compression of a single crystal, superelastic NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) micro-pillar
and the stress-field around an ellipsoidal twinned martensite (M) plate embedded in an …

Ferritic-martensitic dual-phase steels (DP) offer beneficial material properties for industrial
applications. Understanding the microstructural evolution within the production chain and its …

Phase-field finite element (PFFE) modeling of the quenching-partitioning-tempering (QPT)
process is proposed, and the two-dimensional PFFE-QPT model considering carbide …

We propose an elasto-plastic phase-field model (PFM) to conduct the first microscopic
computational study of shape memory effect (SME), pseudoelasticity, stress assisted two …
