Phase-field Simulations of Microstructures
The group is actively developing an open source phase field simulation library OpenPhase which is closely related to our scientific projects.
Simulated martensite microstructure of carbon steel: (a) complete martensite microstructure (b) single martensite packet and (c) martensite blocks.
