Book A Grand Potential Based Multi phase Field Model for Alloy Solidification

Download or read book A Grand Potential Based Multi phase Field Model for Alloy Solidification written by Kaushik Shampur and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ability to model phase transitions in complex (i.e. multi-component and multi- phase) alloys, accurately, efficiently, and in an accessible manner, is important in material science. This thesis derives a new model that extends the quantitative model of polycrystalline solidification of Ofori-Opoku et al [3] to the case of multiple components and alloy phases through a grand potential functional description. Here, solidification is described by a set of order parameters describing solid phases and a set chemical potentials describing solute components. Solidification of a solid phase is driven by the grand potential difference between it and the liquid, expanded here to quadratic order in the chemical potential difference (relative to equilibrium) of each solute, i.e., its supersaturation. This allows us to model both near and far- from equilibrium solidification conditions, and to easily make contact with previous quantitative single-crystal phase field theories in the literature. Thermal fluctuations in the theory are treated via stochastic noise, a feature important for modelling multi-phase nucleation self-consistently. Working in the grand canonical ensemble treats the evolution of order parameter and chemical potential as a coupled process, unique compared to the traditional methods. As a result, complete decoupling of all diffusion fields and order parameter fields is achieved at equilibrium, making it possible to easily set solid-liquid or solid- solid interface energy independently of solute distribution across an an interface, an important feature for quantitative meso-scale calculations. Chemical diffusion equations in the model are augmented by a non-variational, so-called anti-trapping flux in each solute species. These fictitious fluxes are used in the literature in some phase field theories to correct for spurious solute trapping effects caused by the use of a diffuse interface, which is done solely for numerical expediency.We demonstrate its workings of our model in the limit of a two-component eutectic alloy system simulated with 2D dynamic adaptive mesh refinement. Benchmark eutectic lamellar simulations and measurements are first performed. Following that, two-phase homogenous nucleation and growth are examined. In the limit of near- equilibrium interfaces (zero interface kinetics), we illustrate two-phase grain growth scaling that is independent of nucleation barrier." --

Book Quantitative Phase Field Modelling of Solidification

Download or read book Quantitative Phase Field Modelling of Solidification written by Nikolas Provatas and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a study of phase field modelling of solidification in metal alloy systems. It is divided in two main themes. The first half discusses several classes of quantitative multi-order parameter phase field models for multi-component alloy solidification. These are derived in grand potential ensemble, thus tracking solidification in alloys through the evolution of the chemical potentials of solute species rather than the more commonly used solute concentrations. The use of matched asymptotic analysis for making phase field models quantitative is also discussed at length, and derived in detail in order to make this somewhat abstract topic accessible to students. The second half of the book studies the application of phase field modelling to rapid solidification where solute trapping and interface undercooling follow highly non-equilibrium conditions. In this limit, matched asymptotic analysis is used to map phase field evolution equations onto the continuous growth model, which is generally accepted as a sharp-interface description of solidification at rapid solidification rates. This book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in materials science and materials engineering. Key Features Presents a clear path to develop quantitative multi-phase and multi-component phase field models for solidification and other phase transformation kinetics Derives and discusses the quantitative nature of the model formulations through matched interface asymptotic analysis Explores a framework for quantitative treatment of rapid solidification to control solute trapping and solute drag dynamics

Book Thermodynamics of Flowing Systems

Download or read book Thermodynamics of Flowing Systems written by Antony N. Beris and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994-05-26 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This much-needed monograph presents a systematic, step-by-step approach to the continuum modeling of flow phenomena exhibited within materials endowed with a complex internal microstructure, such as polymers and liquid crystals. By combining the principles of Hamiltonian mechanics with those of irreversible thermodynamics, Antony N. Beris and Brian J. Edwards, renowned authorities on the subject, expertly describe the complex interplay between conservative and dissipative processes. Throughout the book, the authors emphasize the evaluation of the free energy--largely based on ideas from statistical mechanics--and how to fit the values of the phenomenological parameters against those of microscopic models. With Thermodynamics of Flowing Systems in hand, mathematicians, engineers, and physicists involved with the theoretical study of flow behavior in structurally complex media now have a superb, self-contained theoretical framework on which to base their modeling efforts.

This book was released on 2007-11-22 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational tools allow material scientists to model and analyze increasingly complicated systems to appreciate material behavior. Accurate use and interpretation however, requires a strong understanding of the thermodynamic principles that underpin phase equilibrium, transformation and state. This fully revised and updated edition covers the fundamentals of thermodynamics, with a view to modern computer applications. The theoretical basis of chemical equilibria and chemical changes is covered with an emphasis on the properties of phase diagrams. Starting with the basic principles, discussion moves to systems involving multiple phases. New chapters cover irreversible thermodynamics, extremum principles, and the thermodynamics of surfaces and interfaces. Theoretical descriptions of equilibrium conditions, the state of systems at equilibrium and the changes as equilibrium is reached, are all demonstrated graphically. With illustrative examples - many computer calculated - and worked examples, this textbook is an valuable resource for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in materials science and engineering.

Book Programming Phase Field Modeling

Download or read book Programming Phase Field Modeling written by S. Bulent Biner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-25 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a fast-track pathway to numerical implementation of phase-field modeling—a relatively new paradigm that has become the method of choice for modeling and simulation of microstructure evolution in materials. It serves as a cookbook for the phase-field method by presenting a collection of codes that act as foundations and templates for developing other models with more complexity. Programming Phase-Field Modeling uses the Matlab/Octave programming package, simpler and more compact than other high-level programming languages, providing ease of use to the widest audience. Particular attention is devoted to the computational efficiency and clarity during development of the codes, which allows the reader to easily make the connection between the mathematical formulism and the numerical implementation of phase-field models. The background materials provided in each case study also provide a forum for undergraduate level modeling-simulations courses as part of their curriculum.
