+ | ===== What is ... ? ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | //MatCalc// is a scientific software toolbox for computer simulation of | ||
+ | |||
+ | * constrained and unconstrained phase equilibria | ||
+ | * multi-component and multi-phase precipitation kinetics | ||
+ | * efficient single-class microstructure evolution of grain growth, recovery and static recrystallization | ||
+ | * multi-class static and dynamic recrystallization with full coupling to precipitation kinetics | ||
+ | * state parameter-based stress-strain curve modeling accounting for numerous strengthening mechanisms | ||
+ | * 1D and 2D long-range diffusion simulation | ||
+ | * simultaneous long-range diffusion and precipitation | ||
+ | * phase transformations / moving phase boundaries | ||
+ | * lattice Metropolis and kinetic Monte Carlo | ||

+ | ===== Vision ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The kinetics of phase transformations are controlled by distinct //physical mechanisms// | ||
+ | |||
+ | We aim at avoiding unknown phenomenological coefficients and try to substitute them by (parameter-free) physical models wherever possible. If no appropriate models are at hand, we try to develop them in our team. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Mission ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Our aim is to develop sound theoretical concepts and transparent, | ||

+ | The latest release of the software is always available in the [[http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | //MatCalc// can be used in a stand-alone GUI or command-line version. It is also available in the form of libraries that can be linked to general-purpose software, such as MatLAB, or your own code. //MatCalc// is available on the Windows, Mac and Linux platforms. | ||
