Modeling of the atomic ordering processes in Fe3Al intermetallics by the Monte Carlo simulation method combined with electronic theory of alloys

2003-12-01
The evolution of atomic ordering processes in Fe3Al has been modeled by the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation method combined with the electronic theory of alloys in pseudopotential approximation. The magnitude of atomic ordering energies of atomic pairs in the Fe3Al system has been calculated by means of electronic theory in pseudopotential approximation up to sixth coordination spheres and subsequently used as input data for MC simulation for more detailed analysis for the first time. The Bragg–Williams long-range order (LRO) and Cowley–Warren short-range order (SRO) parameters have been calculated from the equilibrium configurations attained at the end of MC simulation for each predefined temperature and Al concentration levels, which reveal the evolution of the system from DO3 → B2 → disordered state as temperature increases. The variation of ordering parameters with temperature has identified the transition temperature from DO3 → B2 type superlattice, and from B2 → disordered (a) solid solution at about 540 °C and .900 °C, respectively, showing good qualitative agreement with experimental results. The results of the present study imply that combination of electronic theory of alloys in pseudopotential approximation with MC simulation can be successfully applied for qualitative or semiquantitative analysis of energetical and structural characteristics of atomic ordering processes in Fe3Al intermetallics.

Analysis of material instabilities in inelastic solids by incremental energy minimization and relaxation methods: evolving deformation microstructures in finite plasticity
MIEHE, CHRISTIAN; LAMBRECHT, MATTHIAS; Gürses, Ercan (Elsevier BV, 2004-12-01)
We propose an approach to the definition and analysis of material instabilities in rate-independent standard dissipative solids at finite strains based on finite-step-sized incremental energy minimization principles. The point of departure is a recently developed constitutive minimization principle for standard dissipative materials that optimizes a generalized incremental work function with respect to the internal variables. In an incremental setting at finite time steps this variational problem defines a ...
Computational modeling of isothermal decay curves of trapping centers in TlGaSeS layered single crystals
Kucuk, Ilker; Yildirim, Tacettin; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Ozkan, Husnu (Elsevier BV, 2010-10-08)
This paper presents a new approach based on multilayered perceptrons (MLPs) to compute the isothermal decay curves of trapping centers in undoped TlGaSeS layered crystals. The MLP has been trained by a Genetic Algorithm (GA). The results obtained using the MLP model were tested with an untrained experimental data. The comparison has shown that the proposed model can predict more accurately and easily the isothermal decay curves.

The bulk glass forming ability (BGFA) of Ti-Cu based multicomponent alloys has been evaluated via theoretical modeling and computer simulation studies based on a combination of electronic theory of alloys in the pseudopotential approximation and the statistical thermodynamical theory of liquid alloys The. magnitude of atomic ordering energies, calculated by means of the electronic theory of alloys in the pseudopotential approximation, was subsequently used for calculation of the key thermodynamic parameters...
Numerical and experimental determination of the residual stress state in multipass welded API 5LX70 plates
Garipova, Nuriya; Batıgün, Caner; Gür, Cemil Hakan (2014-01-01)
Residual stres s distributions in multipass welded API SL X70 steel plates were determined by numerical and experimental methods. SYSWELD finite element software was used for numerical simulations. Microstructure variations were also considered for calculation of residual stresses. The continuous cooling transformation diagram was obtained via JMatPro software. The results showed that residual stress distribution is sensitive to number of weld passes, and microstructure changes. The simulation results were ...
