Quantitative phase-field model for phase transformations in multi-component alloys

phase-field, solidification, grand-potential, multi-component, eutectic,peritectic, monotectic AbstractOriginalsprache = Phase-field modeling has spread to a variety of applications involving phase transformations. While the method has wide applicability, derivation of quantitative predictions requires deeper understanding of the coupling between the system and model parameters. The present work highlights a novel phase-field model based on a grand-potential formalism allowing for an elegant an ...
