Proceedings of the 2nd World Congress on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME)

A classical Kaufmann-Wagner numerical model is employed to predict the evolution of precipitate size distribution during the aging treatment of Al-Mg-Si alloys. One feature of the model is its fully coupling with CALPHAD database, and with the input of interfacial energy from ab-initial calculation, it is able to capture the morphological change of the precipitates. The simulation results will be compared with the experimental measurements.
