A foundational reference on CALPHAD modeling

Focused on the Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry (CALPHAD) method, this volume connects its physical basis with applications to complex multicomponent materials. It explains how thermodynamic descriptions are used in phase-diagram calculation and also addresses approaches that bring thermodynamic and kinetic models together to examine phase transformations outside equilibrium. Positioned as both an introduction to core principles and a record of developments in the field, the book is structured as a technical monograph rather than a general overview.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Materials scientists and metallurgists working with phase equilibria
  • Researchers using thermodynamic or kinetic models of multicomponent materials
  • Advanced students seeking a technical introduction to CALPHAD

Book overview

This monograph acts as a benchmark to current achievements in the field of Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry, often called CALPHAD which is an acronym for Computer CALculation of PHAse Diagrams. It also acts as a guide to both the basic background of the subject area and the cutting edge of the topic, combining comprehensive discussions of the underlying physical principles of the CALPHAD method with detailed descriptions of their application to real complex multi-component materials.

Approaches which combine both thermodynamic and kinetic models to interpret non-equilibrium phase transformations are also reviewed.
