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 …

Although several strategies (including grain refinement, texture adjustment, precipitation
hardening, etc.) have been verified to effectively improve the mechanical properties of …

Structural performance is a key challenge pertinent to additive manufacturing. A majority of
the current techniques employed for metallic materials involve liquid–solid transformation …

The mechanisms of dislocation/precipitate interactions were analyzed in an Al–Cu alloy
containing a homogeneous dispersion of θ′ precipitates by means of discrete dislocation …

Twinning-induced plasticity plays a critical role in determining the deformation behaviors of
hexagonal close-packed metals (eg, Mg and Ti), due to the lack of five independent slip …

The metastable β′ phase is a key strengthening precipitate phase in a range of Mg–RE
(RE: rare-earth elements) based alloys. The morphology of the β′ precipitates changes …

We present a contribution to the field of system identification of partial differential equations
(PDEs), with emphasis on discerning between competing mathematical models of pattern …

High quality WE43 magnesium alloy ingots with diameter of 500 mm are successfully
fabricated by direct-chill (DC) casting. The alloying elements distributed almost …

The precipitate morphology in Mg–rare earth (RE) element binary alloys is predicted using a
multi-scale modeling approach combining a three-dimensional (3-D) phase-field model and …

Abstract Metastable γ ″(D0 22-Ni 3 Nb) particles are strengthening precipitates for
commercial Inconel 625 Ni-based superalloy. Understanding their morphological evolution …
