Uncertainty quantification and composition optimization for alloy additive manufacturing through a CALPHAD-based ICME framework

Abstract During powder production, the pre-alloyed powder composition often deviates from the target composition leading to undesirable properties of additive manufacturing (AM) components. Therefore, we developed a method to perform high-throughput calculation and uncertainty quantification by usin...
