The High-dimensional Phase Diagram and the Large CALPHAD Model (2311.07174v1)

Abstract: When alloy systems comprise more than three elements, the visualization of the entire phase space becomes not only daunting but is also accompanied by a data surge. Addressing this complexity, we delve into the FeNiCrMn alloy system and introduce the Large CALPHAD Model (LCM). The LCM acts as a computational conduit, capturing the entire phase space. Subsequently, this enormous data is systematically structured using a high-dimensional phase diagram, aided by hash tables and Depth-first Search (DFS), rendering it both digestible and programmatically accessible. Remarkably, the LCM boasts a 97% classification accuracy and a mean square error of 4.80*10-5 in phase volume prediction. Our methodology successfully delineates 51 unique phase spaces in the FeNiCrMn system, exemplifying its efficacy with the design of all 439 eutectic alloys. This pioneering methodology signifies a monumental shift in alloy design techniques or even multi-variable problems.
