A new micromodel was developed to predict the microstructure and microsegregation in multicomponent alloys during dendritic solidification. The micromodel was directly coupled with multicomponent phase diagram calculations using a user friendly and robust phase diagram calculation engine-PanEngine.

✦ Synopsis
Cavity nucleation
in a recently developed AlL0.55SiL2.02 Ge (wt%) alloy was studied by measuring the volume fraction of voids as a function of strain and precipitate diameter using a pycnometer.
The finite element method was employed in order to calculate stress distributions around the SiGe precipitates for different precipitate diameters using both elasticity and plasticity models. This analysis allows a quantitative comparison between the experimental data and the prediction of a stress criterion for cavity nucleation based on the model developed by Brown and Stobbs.
