Abstract
In the present paper a novel concept of metallurgy viz., ‘virtual–metallurgy’ is introduced. With virtual metallurgy, it is possible to make a large variety of potential alloys and its properties prediction could be done through Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Using the virtual-metallurgy concept, a few new alloys are found with interesting and improved properties viz. [i] Braonze (combination of Brass & Bronze) and [ii] Hc-Hss tool material (combination of high carbon steel & high speed steel). Properties of Brass & Bronze and that of High carbon steel & High speed steel are used as training data to train the ANN.
Virtual-metallurgy in broader sense, is virtual-chemistry, and it can find wide-ranging applications towards virtual-testing & development of composite materials, polymers, medicines etc. Virtual-metallurgy can be considered as eco-friendly metallurgical manufacturing process & testing, that avoids unnecessary hit and trial experiments for the alloy making, only the better ones predicted by ANN can actually be made.
