Introduction

Introducing state-of-the art computational methods, this book combines detailed explanations with real-world case studies to give a full grounding in the design of engineering materials.

Content Overview

This book presents a wide spectrum of key computational methods, such as CALPHAD-method, first-principles calculations, phase-field simulation, and finite element analysis, covering the atomic-meso-macro scale range.

Applications

The reader will see these methods applied to case studies for steel, light alloys, superalloys, cemented carbides, hard coating, and energy materials, demonstrating in detail how real-world materials are designed.

Additional Resources

Online ancillary material includes input files for computational design software, providing the reader with hands-on design experience. Step-by-step instructions will allow you to perform and repeat the simulations discussed in the book.

Target Audience

Aimed at both graduate and undergraduate students as well as non-specialist researchers in materials science and engineering, including ceramics, metallurgy, and chemistry, this is an ideal introductory and reference book.
