Microstructure evolution in metallic alloys encompasses the processes by which grain structures, dislocation networks and phase distributions change under mechanical and thermal stimuli. During ...

The figure shows the evolution of the microstructure of the melt pool under the influence of the simulated transient temperature field. Nucleated grains are represented in pink-purple plots, while ...

Phase-field modelling is a powerful computational framework that describes the spatial and temporal evolution of material microstructures by tracking continuous field variables, or order parameters, ...
