Phase-field method

抄録

The phase-field method is a continuum model used to calculate internal microstructure developments in various materials. Over the past four decades, it has become one of the primary approaches for analyzing microstructures in materials. During this time, both computational thermodynamics (e.g., the CALPHAD method) and material property calculations based on microstructure data have also advanced significantly. Together, these methods are evolving into a robust system that supports multiple aspects of material design. Additionally, data-driven engineering methods can be broadly viewed as a collection of tools for handling forward and inverse models in computational engineering. This tutorial review explores perspectives on the next generation of material design by integrating these approaches.
