Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main accomplishment in this project consists of two parts: (I) Reconstruction cycle in microstructure modeling; and (II) Computation of effective properties via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms. The details are contained in Derr (1998) -- a draft of Ph. D. dissertation entitled 'Statistical modeling of microstructure with applications to effective property computation in materials science' by Bob Derr under the supervision of Chuanshu Ji. One of the most important issues in materials science is the connection between materials properties, e.g., conductivity, elastic moduli, strength, etc. and microstructures. Along this line, many computer models were proposed to generate synthetic microstructures on which some numerical schemes, e.g., finite element, were used to calculate the materials properties of interest, assuming the local properties satisfy certain partial differential equations for stress/strain or diffusions. On the other hand, experimentation was conducted in laboratories which measures those properties from real materials. A significant gap exists between these two aspects of the study due to the lack of methodology for fitting the computer models (i.e., estimating the parameters in those models) based on the real microstructure data.

Download or read book Microstructural Characterization of Materials written by David Brandon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microstructural characterization is usually achieved by allowing some form of probe to interact with a carefully prepared specimen. The most commonly used probes are visible light, X-ray radiation, a high-energy electron beam, or a sharp, flexible needle. These four types of probe form the basis for optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and scanning probe microscopy. Microstructural Characterization of Materials, 2nd Edition is an introduction to the expertise involved in assessing the microstructure of engineering materials and to the experimental methods used for this purpose. Similar to the first edition, this 2nd edition explores the methodology of materials characterization under the three headings of crystal structure, microstructural morphology, and microanalysis. The principal methods of characterization, including diffraction analysis, optical microscopy, electron microscopy, and chemical microanalytical techniques are treated both qualitatively and quantitatively. An additional chapter has been added to the new edition to cover surface probe microscopy, and there are new sections on digital image recording and analysis, orientation imaging microscopy, focused ion-beam instruments, atom-probe microscopy, and 3-D image reconstruction. As well as being fully updated, this second edition also includes revised and expanded examples and exercises, with a solutions manual available at http://develop.wiley.co.uk/microstructural2e/ Microstructural Characterization of Materials, 2nd Edition will appeal to senior undergraduate and graduate students of material science, materials engineering, and materials chemistry, as well as to qualified engineers and more advanced researchers, who will find the book a useful and comprehensive general reference source.

Download or read book Microstructural Analysis written by J. McCall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During recent years, people involved in developing new metals and materials for use in some of the rather extreme conditions of stress, temperature, and environment have relied heavily on the microstructural condition of their materials. In fact, many of the newer materials, such as dispersion-strengthened alloys, have been designed almost entirely by first determining the microstruc ture desired and then finding the right combination of composition, heat treatment, and mechanical working that will result in the de sired microstructure. Furthermore, the extremely high reliability required of materials used today, for example, in aerospace and nuclear energy systems, requires close control on the microstruc tural conditions of materials. This is clearly evident from even a cursory examination of recently written specifications for mate rials where rather precise microstructural parameters are stipu lated. Whereas specifications written several years ago may have included microstructural requirements for details such as ASTM grain size or graphite type, today's specifications are beginning to include such things as volume fraction of phases, mean free path of particles, and grain intercept distances. Rather arbitrary terms such as "medium pearlite" have been replaced by requirements such as "interlamella spacing not to exceed 0. 1 micron. " Finally, materials users have become increasingly aware that when a material does fail, the reason for its failure may be found by examining and "reading" its microstructure. The responsibility for a particular microstructure and a resulting failure is a matter of growing importance in current product liability consider ations.
