Compact physical principles can generate remarkably rich microstructures. Our models connect those principles to observations and materials design.
A continuing research theme from anisotropic misfit and precipitate interactions to splitting, coarsening and stress-driven rafting in Ni-base superalloys, supported by FFT and inhomogeneous-elasticity solvers.
Explore the elastic stress laboratory →Phase separation, superalloy precipitates, bimetallic nanoparticles and ferroelectric domains, connected through thermodynamics and kinetics.
Research and formulations →Inverse diffusion problems, multiobjective optimization and surrogate models that connect observations to governing equations.
Learn the PINN idea →Interactive laboratories, derivations and readable simulation examples accompany our research.
