Simulation study of precipitation in an Mg–Y–Nd alloy

Friction stir additive manufacturing for high structural performance through microstructural control in an Mg based WE43 alloy

“…12(b). These sets correspond to, (i) very fine and spherical precipitates (3-8 nm), (ii) fine and globular shaped b 0 (15-20 nm), (iii) fine and plate shaped b 1 (25-35 nm), and (iv) coarse, irregular and partially faceted b (120-150 nm); based on their similarity with the available literature [58,68,69]. On the basis of precipitation density, such a microstructure is desirable to achieve higher strength due to a lower interparticle spacing.…”

Large-scale three-dimensional phase-field simulation of multi-variant β-Mg17Al12 in Mg–Al-based alloys

“…Mg alloys are important lightweight materials widely used in the automobile and aerospace industries and thus have been intensively researched using both experiments and models. In the modeling work, the precipitation in Mg-RE alloy has been studied intensively using phase-field simulation [14,15]. For Mg-Al-based alloy, related research has also been carried out rather recently to reveal the morphology evolution of the b-Mg 17 Al 12 precipitate and reveal the effects of certain factors on the precipitation behavior [13,[16][17][18].…”

“…Studies of precipitation transformations in magnesium alloys utilizing phase-field models have attracted increasing attention in recent years [13][14][15][16][17][18]. Mg alloys are important lightweight materials widely used in the automobile and aerospace industries and thus have been intensively researched using both experiments and models.…”

Phase field simulation on microstructure evolution in solidification and aging process of squeeze cast magnesium alloy

“…Li et al [18] made an early attempt to simulate the precipitates in AZ91 alloy. Later Gao et al [19] simulated the precipitation of β1 phase in Mg-Y-Nd alloy using a phase field model and discussed the effect of elastic strain energy on the precipitation. Han et al [20] simulated the precipitation of β-Mg 17 Al 12 using a phase field model that considered interfacial anisotropy, and discussed the effects of the two types of solution approximation on the morphology evolution of the precipitate.…”
