“…Importantly, some of the needed methods for handling complex spatio-temporal materials and manufacturing data are being developed under such tools as DREAM.3D [34]. However, agreed upon standards for conveying materials information, such as for microstructure, defects and material properties, are still evolving [38][39][40][41][42]. In order to minimize the barrier to internal data collection, analysis, storage and publishing, e-Collaboration platforms are being recognized as essential components of an organization's infrastructure [43][44][45].…”

For over 100 years, designers of aerospace components have used simple requirement-based material and process specifications. The associated standards, product control documents, and testing data provided a certifiable material definition, so as to minimize risk and simplify procurement of materials during the design, manufacture, and operation of engineered systems, such as aerospace platforms. These material definition tools have been assembled to ensure components meet design definitions and design intent. They must ensure the material used meets "equivalency" to that used in the design process. Although remarkably effective, such traditional materials definitions are increasingly becoming the limiting challenge for materials, design, and manufacturing engineers supporting modern, model-based engineering. Demands for cost-effective, higher performance aerospace systems are driving new approaches for multi-disciplinary design optimization methods that are not easily supportable via traditional representations of materials information. Furthermore, property design values having the definitions based on statistical distributions from testing results can leave substantial margin or material capability underutilized, depending on component complexity and the application. Those historical statistical approaches based on macroscopic testing inhibit innovative approaches for enhancing materials definitions for greater performance in design. This can include location-specific properties, hybrid materials, and additively manufactured components. Development and adoption of digital and model-based means of representing engineering materials, within a design environment, is essential to span the widening gap between materials engineering and design. We believe that the traditional approach to defining materials by chemistry ranges, manufacturing process ranges, and static mechanical property minima will migrate to model-based material definitions (MBMDs), due to the many benefits that result from this new capability. This paper reviews aspects of the challenges and opportunities of model-based engineering and model-based definitions.Keywords ICME · MGI · Model-based engineering · Model-based definition · Model-based material definition · Digital engineering · Materials specifications · Representative volume elements · SERVEs

“…The AixViPMaP® implementation depicted in the present article is based on a pragmatic approach drawing on HDF5type datasets as the major means for the communication amongst different microstructure models and simulation tools [11]. It also includes experimental microstructure data [12]. The nomenclature for the entries in the objects in the HDF5 file essentially follows a metadata scheme for the description of microstructures [13].…”

The present article describes design, architecture, and implementation of the Aachen ("Aix") Virtual Platform for Materials Processing-AixViPMaP ®. This simulation platform focuses on enabling automatic simulation workflows in the area of microstructure evolution and microstructure property relationships by continuum models. Following a description of a variety AixViPMaP® functionalities like user management, the currently implemented software tools, simulation workflows, data storage, grid infrastructure, and many more, some example workflows which have been run on AixViPMaP® are presented in detail. These workflow examples-although each being specific-can readily be transferred to other materials or to similar processes as the major simulation tools used in these workflows are all generic and thus applicable to a wide range of metals and technical alloys. The article concludes with a discussion on the performance and benefits of the platform, an outlook on its future development and on its open, future availability for both academic and commercial use.

“…How does one become aware of suitable tools? ICMEg, the Integrated Computational Materials Engineering expert group [1], a coordination activity of the European Commission, aims at developing a global open standard for information exchange between the heterogeneous varieties of numerous simulation tools. Once established, such an open and easily accessible formulation of a global standard will • significantly facilitate the exchange of data between different tools; • create new options and functionalities of the present tools;…”

“…The ICMEg consortium [1] coordinates respective developments by a strategy of networking stake-holders in the first international workshop, compiling identified and relevant software tools into the Handbook of Software Solutions for ICME, discussing strategies for interoperability between different software tools during a second (planned) international workshop, and eventually proposing a scheme for standardized information exchange in a future book or document. The present article summarizes these respective actions to provide the ICME community with some additional insights and resources from which to help move this field forward.…”
