Review of “Integrated Computer-Aided Process Engineering Session in the International Symposium on Innovation in Materials Processing (ISIMP, 26–29 October 2021)”

Abstract

The International Symposium on Innovation in Materials Processing (ISIMP)" was held in Jeju, Korea, from 26th to 29th October 2021. The proceedings for the session on "Integrated Computer-Aided Process Engineering (ICAPE)" were published in October 2022 as a special issue of Materials Transactions (Vol. 63, No. 10). The primary purpose of the ICAPE session was to address the recent advances in scalebridging simulations and characterization to understand, describe, and predict the microstructure-property relationship of newly developed materials in a lab to industrial-level processes. Among the papers presented at the symposium, this article briefly reviews the following topics: macroscale numerical analysis, such as finite element methods (FEM), microstructure simulations such as phase-field modelling (PFM) and molecular dynamics (MD), and optimization techniques such as machine learning (ML) and design of experiments (DOE).
