Integrated Computational Materials Engineering is an approach to design products, the materials that comprise them, and their associated materials processing methods by linking materials models at multiple length scales. ICME thus naturally requires the combination of a variety of models and software tools.
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)
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 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 engineering design process, also known as the engineering method, is a common series of steps that engineers use in creating functional products and processes. The process is highly iterative – parts of the process often need to be repeated many times before another can be entered – though the part(s) that get iterated and the number of such cycles in any given project may vary.
In materials science, a metal matrix composite (MMC) is a composite material with fibers or particles dispersed in a metallic matrix, such as copper, aluminum, or steel.The secondary phase is typically a ceramic (such as alumina or silicon carbide) or another metal (such as steel [1]).
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.
