MODELLING OF PHASE EQUILIBRIA IN AlCu5Mg1 ALLOYS

Abstract

Al-based alloys were one of the first material types to which thermodynamic phase diagram calculations were applied. Since then improvements in modelling and the increase in computing power has enabled very accurate predictions to be made for phase equilibria in real multicomponent alloys.

Keywords: ternary phase diagram, JMatPro, aluminium-copper-magnesium alloys.
