Abstract
Considering all possible crystal structures is essential in computer simulations of alloy properties, but using Density Functional Theory (DFT) is computationally impractical. To address this, four structural descriptors were evaluated using machine learning (ML) models to predict formation energy, elasticity and hardness of MoTa alloys. A total of 612 configurations were generated by the Clusters Approach to Statistical Mechanics (CASM) software and their corresponding material properties were calculated by DFT. As input features of ML models, the CORR and SOAP performed best (R2 > 0.90, some up to 0.99), followed by ACSF, while CM performed worst. Furthermore, SOAP shows excellent performance in extrapolation for larger supercell structures of the MoTa alloy system and transfer learning for the MoNb alloy system.
期刊介绍:
Serving the multidisciplinary materials community, the journal aims to publish new research work that advances the understanding and prediction of material behaviour at scales from atomistic to macroscopic through modelling and simulation.
Subject coverage:
Modelling and/or simulation across materials science that emphasizes fundamental materials issues advancing the understanding and prediction of material behaviour. Interdisciplinary research that tackles challenging and complex materials problems where the governing phenomena may span different scales of materials behaviour, with an emphasis on the development of quantitative approaches to explain and predict experimental observations. Material processing that advances the fundamental materials science and engineering underpinning the connection between processing and properties. Covering all classes of materials, and mechanical, microstructural, electronic, chemical, biological, and optical properties.
