Abstract

"Materials Genome Engineering" is industrial application oriented. Exploring and using materials computational tools, experimental tools and databases, it emphasizes the integration and development of these three key capabilities to solve materials issues critical to national welfare and people's livelihood. This paper presents the applications of several "Materials Genome Engineering" based methods in nickel-based superalloys, namely high-throughput alloy fabrication, high-throughput thermodynamic and kinetic data acquisition, multi- scale and multi- dimension microstructure characterization, and miniature specimen testing. Quantitative predictive and descriptive capabilities to reveal the relationships among material composition, processing, structure, and property will undoubtedly be faced with great challenges, but they will progress steadily in this context. "Materials Genome Engineering" based methods will promote the research and development of nickel-based superalloys, accelerating the transition from laboratory work to industrial application.
