Abstract

A framework of applications of multiscale modeling to property prediction of advanced materials will be briefly presented. A methodology will be shown to link micro-scale to the continuum scale, integrating micro-scale modeling of microstructure with the large Thermo-Calc© database. This paradigm is successfully applied to the case of Fe-12Ni-6Mn maraging steel. We predict the mechanical properties of the maraging steel such as hardness. We found that our predictions in hardness is in agreement with experimental data.
