Abstract

The evolution of the microstructure during solidification and solid-state phase transformation is crucial for controlling the material microstructure and optimizing performance. Achieving an integrated numerical simulation of the microstructural evolution from solidification to solid-state phase transformation is a cutting-edge challenge in material-microstructure simulation. This study focuses on Au-Pt alloys, utilizing a multiphase field model combined with a microstructural information transfer algorithm to simulate and predict microstructural evolution during the solidification and solid-state phase transformation under different initial composition conditions. The study successfully realizes an integrated simulation prediction of the microstructural evolution across both processes, revealing the influence of microsegregation and grain boundaries during solidification on subsequent processes of decomposition and spinodal decomposition.
