Integrates fundamental concepts with experimental data and practical applications, including worked examples and end-of-chapter problems.
Includes worked examples, case studies, and end-of-chapter problems, this unique book offers an unrivalled and in-depth understanding of the computational-based thermodynamic approach and how it can be used to guide the design of materials ...
Phase diagrams are used in materials research and engineering to understand the interrelationship between composition, microstructure and process conditions. In complex systems, computational methods such as CALPHAD are employed to...
This violates the “detailed balance” which demands that two or more sites may not be flipped simultaneously if their ... simultaneously attempts flip spins in a subdomain in which all sites share no neighbors with other subdomains.
The basic part of the book is written to help learners acquire robust applied skills in an easy-to-understand manner, with in-depth explanations and schematic diagrams included. The same book can be used by advanced learners as well.
This book focuses on the role of modeling in the design of alloys and intermetallic compounds.
There is a set of practical steps concerning computational procedures presented. Open access to executable files in the book make it possible for everyone to understand better phenomena and processes described in the book.
This book provides state-of-the-art computational approaches for accelerating materials discovery, synthesis, and processing using thermodynamics and kinetics.
Emphasising essential methods and universal principles, this textbook provides everything students need to understand the basics of simulating materials behaviour.
Thermodynamics of Microstructures
The book is intended for scientists, engineers and graduate students in all fields involving materials science-related disciplines. Both Dr. Qing Jiang and Dr. Zi Wen are professors at Jilin University.
