Dipl. Eng. Marianthi Bouzouni of the Physical Metallurgy and Forming Department of ELKEME participated in  “4th International Symposium on Phase‑Field Modelling in Materials Science” which was held in Bochum, Germany, 22 – 25 July, 2019. The conference was organized by academics and researchers from Ruhr Universitat Bochum (RUB), Interdisciplinary Centre for Advanced Materials Simulation (ICAMS), The Ohio State University. Approximately 107 presentations and 40 posters covered a broad field of phase field modeling, with applications related to solidification, solid – state transformations, recrystallization, deformation and fracture on metallic alloys, particularly in steels and aluminum heat treatable alloys.
