Aging simulation in heat-treatable aluminum alloysDear MatCalc User, We are pleased to announce that a new video demonstrating the precipitation kinetics simulation of aging process of a typical heat treatable Al-alloy is now available on MatCalc website. In this video, the effect of quenched in vacancies that has a major role in the artificial aging process is demonstrated. Simulation set up of the natural aging and the subsequent artificial aging for a typical ternary Al-Mg-Si system with composition relevant for 6063 alloy is explained profoundly. You can follow the formation of co-clusters of Mg and Si atoms during natural aging and their subsequent transformation to ß´´-phase as the system temperature is elevated. This example helps to understand more deeply the evolution of the precipitates in heat treatable aluminum alloys and shows the paths how complex heat treatments simulation can be carried out. Please forward this newsletter to any other person who might be interested in the simulation of heat treatable aluminum alloys. We will be happy to receive your feedback on the topic covered by this video. Moreover, if you have some suggestions on requested topics for further videos, feel free to share these with us. Your MatCalc Engineering Team Support Department PS: Next week you can view another tutorial video about “Grain growth kinetics”. |
