We develop a phase field model for the simulation of chemical diffusion-limited solidification
in complex metallic alloys. The required thermodynamic and kinetic input information is …

In this research, in situ high-temperature electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) map**
is applied to record and analyze the migration of the α/γ interfaces during cyclic austenite …

We have investigated the microstructure evolution during the isothermal and non-isothermal
solidification of ternary Al–Cu–Ni alloys by means of a general multi-phase-field model for …

We give an excerpt of recent developments in the experimentally benchmarked modeling of
bainite formation in the press hardening process. As the press hardening process poses a …

For 6 years from 2007–2013 the DFG has funded the scientific priority program 1296 with
the above title. Its aim was to attain a fundamental understanding of the basic mechanisms …

We discuss the modelling of grain boundary dynamics within an amplitude equations
description, which is derived from classical density functional theory or the phase field …

The phase-field method is an established and versatile tool for the modeling of
microstructure evolution in complex systems. We consider the stationary motion of planar …

We discuss a model of diffusion limited growth in solid-state transformations, which are
strongly influenced by elastic effects. Density differences and structural transformations …

The structure formation in peritectic Al-4.5 at.% Cu-11at.% Ni ternary alloy with four-phase
peritectic reaction was investigated using the quantitative phase-field model of eutectic …

Amplitude equations are discussed as an extension of phase field models, which contain
atomic resolution and allow one to describe polycrystalline structures, lattice deformations …
