We study spacing selection in directional solidification of Al-Cu alloys under transient growth conditions. New experimental results are presented which reveal that dendritic spacing versus solidification rate evolves in an almost step-wise…
Investigations of directionally solidifying melt pools during metal additive manufacturing (AM) reveal that the resulting subgrain cellular structures often grow along crystalline orientations different from the temperature gradient…
We use a phase-field model to study the effect of confinement on dendritic growth, in a pure material solidifying in an undercooled melt, and in the directional solidification of a dilute binary alloy. Specifically, we observe the effect of…
Recent solidification experiments identified an oscillatory growth instability during directional solidification of Ni-based superalloy CMSX4 under a given range of cooling rates. From a modeling perspective, the quantitative simulation of…
Gravity-induced buoyancy, inevitable in most solidification processes, substantially alters the dynamics of crystal growth, such that incorporating fluid flow in solidification models is crucial to understand and predict key aspects of…
We present a mathematical formulation of a multiscale model for solidification with convective flow in the liquid phase. The model is an extension of the dendritic needle network approach for crystal growth in a binary alloy. We propose a…
We present a quantitative benchmark of multiscale models for dendritic growth simulations. We focus on approaches based on phase-field, dendritic needle network, and grain envelope dynamics. As a first step, we focus on isothermal growth of…
This study addresses microstructure selection mechanisms in rapid solidification, specifically targeting the transition from cellular/dendritic to planar interface morphologies under conditions relevant to additive manufacturing. We use a…
Solidification is an important process in many alloy processing routes. The solidified microstructure of alloys is usually made up of dendrites, eutectics or a combination of both. The evolving morphologies are largely determined by the…
We present experiments on the doublon growth morphology in directional solidification. Samples used are succinonitrile with small amounts of poly(ethylene oxide), acetone, or camphor as the solute. Doublons, or symmetry-broken dendrites,…
By performing lattice Boltzmann simulations of a binary mixture, we scrutinize the dynamical scaling hypothesis for the spinodal decomposition of binary mixtures for the crossover region, i.e. the region of parameters in the growth curve…
In this article, we combine casting experiments and quantitative simulations to present a novel multiscale modeling approach to predict local primary dendritic spacings in metallic alloys solidified in conditions relevant to industrial…
We present adaptive finite element simulations of dendritic and eutectic solidification in binary and ternary alloys. The computations are based on a recently formulated phase-field model that is especially appropriate for modelling…
We study phase segregation in a model alloy undergoing both ordering and decomposition, using computer simulations of Kawasaki exchange dynamics on a square lattice. Following a quench into the miscibility gap we observe an early stage in…
The crossover region in the phase diagram of polymer solutions, in the regime above the overlap concentration, is explored by Brownian Dynamics simulations, to map out the universal crossover scaling functions for the gyration radius and…
Results are presented for the phase separation process of a binary mixture subject to an uniform shear flow quenched from a disordered to a homogeneous ordered phase. The kinetics of the process is described in the context of the…
The evolution of solidification microstructures in ternary metallic alloys is investigated by adaptive finite element simulations of a general multicomponent phase-field model. A morphological transition from dendritic to globular growth is…
Dendrites are one of the most widely observed patterns in nature and occur across a wide spectrum of physical phenomena. In solidification and growth patterns in metals and crystals, the multi-level branching structures of dendrites pose a…
The dynamic response of dendritic solidification to spatially homogeneous time-periodic forcing has been studied. Phase-field calculations performed in two dimensions (2D) and experiments on thin (quasi 2D) liquid crystal layers show that…
