A fundamental requirement to meet the ambitious ICME objective of designing materials for specific products resp. components is an integrative and interdisciplinary computational description of the history of the component starting from the sound initial condition of a homogeneous, isotropic and stress free melt resp. gas phase and continuing via subsequent processing steps and eventually ...
Mesh analysis works by arbitrarily assigning mesh currents in the essential meshes (also referred to as independent meshes). An essential mesh is a loop in the circuit that does not contain any other loop. Figure 1 labels the essential meshes with one, two, and three. [3] A mesh current is a current that loops around the essential mesh and the ...
The material point method (MPM) is a numerical technique used to simulate the behavior of solids, liquids, gases, and any other continuum material. Especially, it is a robust spatial discretization method for simulating multi-phase (solid-fluid-gas) interactions.
All major materials science conferences include computational research. Focusing entirely on computational efforts, the TMS ICME World Congress meets biannually. The Gordon Research Conference on Computational Materials Science and Engineering began in 2020. Many other method specific smaller conferences are also regularly organized.
Mesh is a measurement of particle size often used in determining the particle-size distribution of a granular material. For example, a sample from a truckload of peanuts may be placed atop a mesh with 5 mm openings. When the mesh is shaken, small broken pieces and dust pass through the mesh while whole peanuts are retained on the mesh.
Multi-part meshing (mesh any number of structures simultaneously) Mapping functions to apply material properties based on signal strength (e.g. Young's modulus to Hounsfield scale) Smoothing of meshes (e.g. topological preservation of data to ensure preservation of connectivity, and volume neutral smoothing to prevent shrinkage of convex hulls)
There are several examples of FGMs in nature, including bamboo and bone, which alter their microstructure to create a material property gradient. [3] In biological materials, the gradients can be produced through changes in the chemical composition, structure, interfaces, and through the presence of gradients spanning multiple length scales.
Schematic illustration of idealized fiber arrays and their corresponding unit cells. In the theory of composite materials, the representative elementary volume (REV) (also called the representative volume element (RVE) or the unit cell) is the smallest volume over which a measurement can be made that will yield a value representative of the whole.
