Thermodynamic analysis of the topologically close packed ? phase in the Co-Cr system

November 22, 2018
Author(s)
Peisheng Wang, Matthew C. Peters, Ursula R. Kattner, Kamal Choudhary, Gregory B. Olson
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that a thermodynamic description considering the magnetic contribution to the total energy for the end-members of the σ phase is necessary. A more straightforward method to use the DFT results in a CALPHAD

Predicting synthesizability

October 24, 2018
Author(s)
Albert Davydov, Ursula R. Kattner
Advancements in multiscale multi-physics computational materials design have led to accelerated discovery of advanced materials for energy, electronics and engineering applications. For most bulk materials synthesizing and processing procedures are

Thermodynamic re-assessment of the Co-Al-W system

October 2, 2017
Author(s)
Peisheng Wang, Wei Xiong, Ursula R. Kattner, Carelyn E. Campbell, Eric Lass, Oleg Y. Kontsevoi, Gregory B. Olson
The Co-Al-W system and its binary sub-systems Al-Co, Al-W and Co-W were critically reviewed. The thermodynamic description of the Co-Al-W system including all three binaries was developed considering thermodynamic and constitutional data of the systems

Application of Finite Element, Phase-field, and CALPHAD-based Methods to Additive Manufacturing of Ni-based Superalloys

September 21, 2017
Author(s)
Trevor Keller, Greta Lindwall, Supriyo Ghosh, Li Ma, Brandon M. Lane, Fan Zhang, Ursula R. Kattner, Eric Lass, Yaakov S. Idell, Maureen E. Williams, Andrew J. Allen, Jonathan E. Guyer, Lyle E. Levine
Numerical simulations are used in this work to investigate aspects of microstructure and microsegregation during rapid solidification of a Ni-based superalloy in a laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process. Thermal modeling by finite element

A computational framework for designing Ni-based superalloy

August 31, 2017
Author(s)
Sheng Yen Li, Ursula R. Kattner, Carelyn E. Campbell
A computational framework is proposed to provide an interdisciplinary environment to develop γ/γ Ni-based superalloys. A prototype design is demonstrated to select the chemical composition and processing conditions for a high work to necking (EWTN) Ni(1−x

Thermodynamics and Phase Diagrams

February 19, 2017
Author(s)
Ursula R. Kattner
Thermodynamics is a field of physics and chemistry. It uses mathematics to describe changes in energy and entropy (disorder) of a material that is subject to mechanical, thermal or chemical action. It is most frequently used to describe the conditions that

Data Resources for Thermophysical Properties of Metals and Alloys, Part 1: Structured Data Capture from the Archival Literature

January 7, 2017
Author(s)
Boris Wilthan, Erik A. Pfeif, Vladimir Diky, Robert D. Chirico, Ursula R. Kattner, Kenneth G. Kroenlein
In support of the continuous scientific and industrial need for accessible and high-quality thermophysical property data for metals and alloy systems, NIST/TRC is expanding its data archiving and critical evaluation activities to include this area. As part

Chapter 4: Thermodynamics

November 15, 2016
Author(s)
Ursula R. Kattner, Tore Haug-Warberg, Long-Qing Chen, Bengt Hallstedt, Andre Costa e Silva, Joonho Lee, Jean-Marc Joubert, Jean-Claude Crivello, Zhang Fan, Bethany Huseby
Thermodynamic modelling is currently one of the most mature areas of ICME and companies that produce software tools for thermodynamic modelling are deeply involved in initiatives in the EU and US to advance the ICME vision, so thermodynamic modelling will

OpenCalphad thermodynamic software interface including parallelization

September 12, 2016
Author(s)
Bo Sundman, Ursula R. Kattner, Christophe Sigli, Matthias Stratmann, Romain Le Tellier, Mauro Palumbo, Suzana G. Fries
Thermodynamic data are needed for all kind of simulations of materials processes. For example, for kinetic models thermodynamic quantities, such as chemical potentials, driving forces for precipitation, thermodynamic factors for converting mobilities to

An Informatics Infrastructure for the Materials Genome Initiative

July 6, 2016
Author(s)
Alden A. Dima, Sunil K. Bhaskarla, Chandler A. Becker, Mary C. Brady, Carelyn E. Campbell, Philippe J. Dessauw, Robert J. Hanisch, Ursula R. Kattner, Kenneth G. Kroenlein, Adele P. Peskin, Raymond L. Plante, Guillaume Sousa Amaral, Zachary T. Trautt, James A. Warren, Sharief S. Youssef, Sheng Yen Li, Pierre Francois Rigodiat, Marcus W. Newrock
A materials data infrastructure that enables the sharing and transformation of a wide range of materials data is an essential part of achieving the goals of the Materials Genome Initiative. We describe two high-level requirements of such an infrastructure

The CALPHAD method and its role in material and process development

February 26, 2016
Author(s)
Ursula R. Kattner
Successful design of materials and manufacturing processes requires the availability of reliable materials data. Commercial alloys usually contain a large number of elements, and the needed data for the design of new materials and processes are rarely
