2mech: a Software Package Combining Microstructure Modeling and Mechanical Property Prediction
We have developed a graphical user interface (GUI) based package 2mech
to perform phase-field simulation for predicting microstructure evolution. The
package can take inputs from ab initio calculations and CALPHAD (Calculation of
Phase Diagrams) tools for quantitative microstructure prediction. The package
also provides a seamless connection to transfer output from the mesoscale phase
field method to the microscale finite element analysis for mechanical property
prediction. Such a multiscale simulation package can facilitate
microstructure-property correlation, one of the cornerstones in accelerated
materials development within the integrated computational materials engineering
(ICME) framework
