Integrated Computational Materials, Process and Product Engineering – IC-MPPE 2022

On the example of Al 2024, it is shown how experimental analysis and computational materials simulation can interact to identify physical mechanisms that operate in the alloy in the course of component production. In particular, the rotary swaging (Rundkneten) process is taken as an example where more or less strong plastic deformation during shaping of the component is followed up by an...

The metals producing industry is continuously developing new processing capabilities and high-performance alloys with improved properties to meet societal demands in the transportation, energy, construction and health sectors. These developments can benefit from the use of advanced computational materials science tools to simulate microstructure evolution during processing of alloys including...

Computational design of alloy materials relies on predictive modeling of alloy properties. While conventional ab initio methods offer such a possibility they are not efficient for disordered systems such as metallic solid solutions. The focus of our method development within the GreenALM project is an alternative approach based on the Green's function formalism. This approach brings two...

The world’s transition to renewable energy sources with reduced or zero greenhouse gas emissions gives hydrogen a special role of a sustainable energy source, as it can be produced and converted without CO2 emissions. However, there is a long-standing problem related to hydrogen-material interaction, also known as the hydrogen embrittlement. Most of the known-to-date structural materials...
