Abstract

The integrated simulation model for microstructural design of Fe-C alloy using the phase-field method and the homogenization method is proposed. First, the phase-field simulation is performed to simulate the morphological change of the grain boundary ferrite to Widmanstätten ferrite. Then, in order to clarify the effects of the morphology of the ferrite phase on the micro- and macroscopic mechanical properties, the finite element analysis based on the homogenization method is conducted with the representative volume element obtained from the phase-field simulation. This numerical approach provides a powerful tool to investigate systematically the micro and macroscopic mechanical behavior with the morphological change of the ferrite phase in the Fe-C alloy.
