Multi-scale simulation of ordering process from electronic, atomistic scales to microstructural scale was carried out by hybridizing Phase Field Method (PFM) and Cluster Variation Method (CVM). The hybrid model was applied to disorder-L10 ordering process in Fe-Pd system. Furthermore, computation of relaxation constants in the PFM was attempted based on Path Probability Method (PPM) which is the time evolution version of the CVM, within a linearized analysis of order-order relaxation process.

AbstractTemperature-composition phase diagrams of alloys are calculated by a new method combining (i) first principles total energy calculations (at T=0) for ordered structures, using the local density formalism, with (ii) finite-temperature statistical-mechanics approach (the Cluster Variation Method) to the solution of the multi-spin Ising model, using volume-dependent interaction energies obtained from (i). Novel features, including the appearance of metastable long-range ordered compounds at low temperatures are discovered.
