description

The application of the Monte Carlo method to lattice-statistics problems in metallurgy is reviewed. Examples are given for the prediction of phase diagrams from simple model assumptions for effective interatomic potentials and for the calculation of parameters describing long- and short-range order, ordering energy, etc., both for face-centered cubic (fcc) and body-centered cubic (bcc) lattices. Applications to real systems such as Cu—Au and Fe—Al alloys are discussed.
