The installation packages are now available on all platforms.
Template scripts for core module are now translated into new script syntax.
Final polish of the single-class recrystallization model and fixes in the multi-class treatment. The development of realistic multi-class topology treatment is still in progress.
Reformulation of the high and low temperature formulations of the dynamic strength model.
Improved software update routines. Software update is available in the help menu and automatically performed if internet access to the MatCalc server is granted.
Fixed some issues with multi-class strengthening calculations.
Improved automatic check for newer MatCalc versions.
Implemented trap site competition for multiple elements on the same trapping site.
Support for Fahrenheit. It is now possible to use the flag 'f' with temperature related variables, e.g., T$f
will display temperature in Fahrenheit.
Removed the obsolete model for “solute trapping phases”.
Implemented model for cross-core diffusion in strengthening treatment.
Changed grain growth formula to be related to radius instead of diameter. Attention: Makes kinetics twice as fast! Previous calibrations must be corrected.
Added a variable to control the inner-particle diffusion reduction of shrinking particles. Makes numerical integration control of precipitate size distribution evolution more stable.
Renamed some variables related to recrystallization: “REXX” → “RX”.
Modified formulation of dynamic strengthening. Corresponding paper is in progress.
Only allow letters, number and underlines for composition set names. Check for duplicate alias names, when creating precipitate phases.
