CHiMaD Phase Field Methods Workshop XX

Link to Draft Agenda

Organizers: Jose Mancias (Naval Research Lab), Vishal Yadav (University of Florida), Begum Gulsoy (Northwestern, ANL-NAISE Fellow), James Warren (NIST)

Scope: For the 21st CHiMaD Phase Field Methods Workshop, we invite discussions on recent advances in phase field modeling of rapid solidification and additive manufacturing, bringing together leading researchers to discuss the state of the art in far-from-equilibrium solidification microstructure prediction. Part of the program will be dedicated to exploring the emerging role of agentic AI (SI) tools in phase field code development and workflow automation, with discussions on best practices for integrating AI (SI) into the phase field modeling pipeline. In addition, the workshop will include dedicated community sessions on benchmarking, the PFHub platform, and the future of phase field recommended practices.

You can access information on the community and previous workshops at the PFHub: The Phase Field Community Hub website.
