THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF N000141410675 Understanding Atomic Scale Structure in Four Dimensions to Design and Control Mesoscale
Abstract
The outcome of this MURI endeavor is expected to be the predictive capability of the 3D-polyphase structures for wide range of length scales (i.e., reduction of interfacial energy due to specific atoms segregation) and our scientific understanding how the thermal field interact with polyphase structures that contains chemical activity gradienst. The major premise of the combination of processing and diagnostic techniques are working beyond their specialization and correctly claim that they follow the science not the technique. Hence, the strength of the proposed research is two-fold. First, the proposed modeling of structure of polyphase systems is very strong and is expected to yield great scientific understanding about the degree of response characteristics at the surface and at interfaces of structure. Specifically, if these modeling efforts are validated through measurement using. Second, this formulation allows the use of complete constitutive equations that can approximately represent three dimensional effects, which is not possible with formulations that use reduced elasticity tensor components. The atomic and electronic structure of materials to predict functional material properties and devices are profoundly important for the DAF, ARL, NRL and DOD, and thus proposed research areas of (1) first-principle calculations, (2) coupling of first principle calculations a with phase field theory to bridge from nano-scale to meso-scale, and (3) completely different pathway to elucidate how the oxidation starts instead of measuring the rate functions has strong DOD potential interest.
