Hi !
I am looking for reliable and available software/ open source codes to simulate microstructure evolution of a metal matrix composite during solidification process of a Laser Powder bed fusion process. I have found some research papers which used Cellular Automata to simulate microstructure evolution of pure metals. But, I am not sure if its going to work for metal matrix composites too. Any suggestion/guidance will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Taosif
Micress (The MICRostructure Evolution Simulation Software), could be used. This software is based on multiphase-field concepts.
Hi Taosif,
You can try LAMMPS. It is an open source molecular dynamics simulator.
Here is the link

It depends on many thing. In the atomic scale you can use lammps. If you are interested in macroscale modeling of solidification based on phase field modeling, you can use Moose.

In the Wikipedia page for Phase field modeling, a group of softwares has also been suggested:
