AbstractA Brownian dynamics algorithm described in the companion paper [1] is used to simulate sheared suspensions of particles interacting via a depletion potential. The shear and interaction forces interplay to give a complex non-equilibrium phase diagram: a variety of shear induced agglomerates form at low shear rate, but, for shear rates above a non-equilibrium phase boundary the agglomerates develop interfaces predominantly orientated parallel to the plane of shear gradient and flow.

AbstractIdealised models of sheared suspensions are studied by computer simulation. In this and the companion paper [1], non-equilibrium phase diagrams are evaluated for two models: one for electrorheology (this paper), the other for aggregation due to depletion (companion paper [1]). Distinct structural phases and their associated rheology are reported.

AbstractForming metallurgical phases has a critical impact on the performance of dissimilar materials joints. Here, we shed light on the forming mechanism of equilibrium and non-equilibrium intermetallic compounds (IMCs) in dissimilar aluminum/steel joints with respect to processing history (e.g., the pressure and temperature profiles) and chemical composition, where the knowledge of free energy and atomic diffusion in the Al–Fe system was taken from first-principles phonon calculations and data available in the literature. We found that the metastable and ductile (judged by the presently predicted elastic constants) Al6Fe is a pressure (P) favored IMC observed in processes involving high pressures. The MoSi2-type Al2Fe is brittle and a strong P-favored IMC observed at high pressures. The stable, brittle η-Al5Fe2 is the most observed IMC (followed by θ-Al13Fe4) in almost all processes, such as fusion/solid-state welding and additive manufacturing (AM), since η-Al5Fe2 is temperature-favored, possessing high thermodynamic driving force of formation and the fastest atomic diffusivity among all Al–Fe IMCs. Notably, the ductile AlFe3, the less ductile AlFe, and most of the other IMCs can be formed during AM, making AM a superior process to achieve desired IMCs in dissimilar materials. In addition, the unknown configurations of Al2Fe and Al5Fe2 were also examined by machine learning based datamining together with first-principles verifications and structure predictions. All the IMCs that are not P-favored can be identified using the conventional equilibrium phase diagram and the Scheil-Gulliver non-equilibrium simulations.

Here, we shed light on the forming mechanism of equilibrium and non-equilibrium intermetallic compounds (IMCs) in the dissimilar aluminum/steel joints with respect to processing history (e.g., the pressure- and temperature-profiles) and chemical composition, where the used knowledge of free energy and atomic diffusion in the Al-Fe system was taken from first-principles phonon calculations and data available in the literature. We found that the metastable while ductile (judged by the presently predicted elastic constants) Al6Fe is a pressure (P) favored IMC observed in the processes involving high pressures. The MoSi2-type Al2Fe is a brittle and a strong P-favored IMC observed at high pressures. The stable, brittle h-Al5Fe2 is the most commonly observed IMC (followed by q-Al13Fe4) in almost all processes, such as fusion/solid-state welding and additive manufacturing (AM), since h-Al5Fe2 is temperature-favored, possessing high thermodynamic driving force of formation and the fastest atomic diffusivity among all Al-Fe IMCs. Notably the ductile AlFe3, the less ductile AlFe, and most of the other IMCs can be formed during AM, making AM a superior process to achieve desired IMCs in dissimilar materials. In addition, the unknown configurations of Al2Fe and Al5Fe2 were also examined by machine learning based datamining together with first-principles verifications and structure predictor. All the IMCs, which are not P-favored, can be identified using the conventional equilibrium phase diagram and the Scheil-Gulliver non-equilibrium simulations.
