SUMMARY:PAMS Seminar: "High-throughput Investigations of Phase Formation a
 nd  Mechanical Properties in Complex Metallic Alloys" by Dr. Katharine Fl
 ores
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Katharine FloresDepartment of Mechanical Engineering &amp; Mat
 erials ScienceInstitute of Materials Science and EngineeringWashington Un
 iversity in St. Louis\n\n\nAbstract:\n\n\nMeeting the design requirements
  of the next generation of high performance transportation systems\, powe
 r generators\, and energy storage devices requires the discovery and deve
 lopment of new structural alloys with enhanced properties. In this work\,
  we integrate computational simulations and high-throughput synthesis met
 hods to rapidly screen and identify alloy compositions with desirable str
 ucture-property combinations. The first part of this presentation will fo
 cus on the application of this methodology to the discovery of metallic g
 lass-forming alloys. Using molecular dynamics simulations\, we investigat
 e the evolution of the atomic structure from the liquid to room temperatu
 re for more than 200 alloy compositions in a range of binary and ternary 
 systems. These results are then compared with glass-forming compositional
  regimes identified experimentally in alloy libraries produced by a high-
 throughput laser-deposition technique. The simulated and experimental gla
 ss forming compositional ranges are found to be in excellent agreement. B
 ased on this comparison\, we then identify structural parameters in the s
 imulated liquid that are predictive of glass formation upon quenching. To
  further demonstrate the utility of the high-throughput synthesis method\
 , we next apply it to investigate “high entropy” alloys. Compositional an
 d microstructural libraries of an AlxCoCrFeNi high entropy alloy are cons
 tructed over a wide composition range. As the Al content increased from x
  = 0.15-1.32\, the crystal structure was observed to transition from FCC 
 to BCC/B2\, in excellent agreement with previously published work. In add
 ition to the presence of the expected phases\, the laser-processed micros
 tructure was surprisingly consistent with that produced by casting. In li
 ght of this\, the laser processing conditions were then varied in an effo
 rt to study the sensitivity of the microstructure and properties to heati
 ng and cooling rates. These results are compared with existing models for
  dendritic solidification.
