The precipitate shape, size and distribution are crucial factors which determine the properties of several technologically important alloys. Elastic interactions between the inclusions modify their morphology and align them along…
Elastic interactions arising from a difference of lattice spacing between two coherent phases can have a strong influence on the phase separation (coarsening) of alloys. If the elastic moduli are different in the two phases, the elastic…
Multiscale modelling is a new paradigm that has emerged in recent times to study the well-known problem of the process-structure-property relationship in the area of materials science and engineering. For obtaining the desired performance…
The growth and microstructural properties of ternary monolayers of two-dimensional hexagonal materials are examined, including both individual two-dimensional crystalline grains and in-plane heterostructures, multijunctions, or…
Coherent elastic strain is an important but often neglected contribution to phase-separation thermodynamics in alloy systems where decomposed phases have appreciable lattice mismatch. We develop a thermodynamic framework that incorporates…
A phase field model is presented to investigate dislocation formation (coherency loss) and workhardening in two-phase binary alloys. In our model the elastic energy density is a periodic function of the shear and tetragonal strains, which…
Inspired by recent experiments, we present a phase-field model of microphase separation in an elastomer swollen with a solvent. The imbalance between the molecular scale of demixing and the mesoscopic scale beyond which elasticity operates…
Transformations accompanying shape-instability govern the morphological configuration and distribution of the phases in a microstructure. Owing to the influence of the microstructure on the properties of a material, the stability of…
Engineering alloys generally exhibit multi-phase microstructures. For simulating their microstructure evolution during solid-state phase transformation, CALPHAD-guided multi-phase-field models coupled with micro-mechanics have proven to be…
This review is on the phase field modelling studies in elastic stress effects on microstructural instabilities. We will focus primarily on four elastic stress driven instabilities: (i) Spinodal phase separation; (ii) Particle splitting;…
Elastic microphase separation refers to equilibrium patterns that form by phase separation in elastic gels. Recent experiments revealed a continuous phase transition from the homogeneous phase to a regularly patterned phase, whose period…
A theoretical investigation of the effects of elastic coherency on the thermodynamics, kinetics, and morphology of intercalation in single LiFePO4 nanoparticles yields new insights into this important battery material. Anisotropic elastic…
In order to improve the understanding of damage evolution in mechanically heterogeneous microstructures, like the ones of dual-phase steels, the influence of the applied stress state is a key element. In this work, we studied the influence…
Applied magnetic fields can alter phase equilibria and kinetics in steels; however, quantitatively resolving how magnetic, chemical, and elastic driving forces jointly influence the microstructure remains challenging. We develop a…
The simulations of the solidification of ternary Al-Cu-Ni alloys by means of a general multi-phase-field model for an arbitrary number of phases reveal that the real microstructure can be generated by coupling the real thermodynamic…
Understanding the phase transformation pathways (PTPs) and microstructural evolution in multi-phase HEAs will aid alloy and process designs to tailor the microstructures for specific engineering applications. In this work, we study…
Precipitation-strengthened alloys, such as Ni-base, Co-base and Fe-base superalloys, show the development of dendrite-like precipitates in the solid state during aging at near-$\gamma^{\prime}$ solvus temperatures. These features arise out…
This work extends the Cahn--Larch\'e thermodynamic framework to binary alloys in which two coherent solid phases coexist with an incoherent liquid and investigates how coherency strain energy modifies classical eutectic and peritectic…
Complex morphologies and microstructures that emerge during materials growth and solidification are often determined by both equilibrium and kinetic properties of the interface and their crystalline anisotropies. However limited knowledge…
We investigate lamellar three-phase patterns that form during the directional solidification of ternary eutectic alloys in thin samples. A distinctive feature of this system is that many different geometric arrangements of the three phases…
