Modeling & Simulation (Page 3)

The ability to advance model phase transformations in metals during welding enables design engineers to optimize material selection and joining processes in the earliest stages of product development. Techniques based on certain analytical equations can predict phase transformations. These methods are part of EWI’s overall ICME approach* to material behavior modeling. EWI associates Alber Sadek,...

Data-based tools and techniques can significantly improve manufacturing efficiency and productivity. To date, however, there have been challenges – both real and perceived – to full-scale adoption of data science across industrial sectors. To address these obstacles, EWI Director of Data Science Alex Kitt has written Data Science: New Approaches to Address Manufacturing Challenges. This...

Manufacturing engineers need tools that can help them understand microstructural changes during processes like welding, additive manufacturing, and heat treatment. Some available techniques (analytical, empirical, FEA) have been discussed in EWI’s recent ICME series* of papers. An additional approach uses phenomenological modeling to provide information important to predicting metallurgical behavior. EWI associates Rafael Giorjão and...
