Numerical Modeling on Metallic Materials

Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Numerical modeling and its application in materials research as well as engineering have been advanced for quite a few decades so far. The usage of various numerical modeling techniques is steadily increasing both in academia and industry, with greater maturity and a stronger impact. Nevertheless, it is also recognized that the awareness of the benefits that numerical modeling may bring should be adequately raised in line with its advantages as well as its limitations, particularly in comparison and conjunction with physically based trials and experimentation. The purpose of this Topic is to provide a collective platform for the appreciation of the current state of the art in the numerical modeling of metallic materials, in order to further promote interdisciplinary interaction and crossfertilization for the future development and application of numerical modeling techniques in materials science and engineering. Contributions are therefore cordially invited to this Special Issue from scientists, researchers and engineers, with topics covering, but not limited to, the following areas:
- Ab initio calculations of alloy design and properties prediction
- Multiscale and multiphysics modeling
- AI and machine learning
- Data mining and its application in metallic materials design and manufacturing
- Materials constitutive modeling
- Modeling and simulation of materials’ manufacturing processes
- Solidification, deformation and phase transformation
- Prediction of microstructure and properties
- Plasticity and strain damage
- Fatigue and fracture of metallic materials
- Prediction and mitigation of residual stress and distortion
- Numerical methods, software technology, verification/validation and standardization
