Predicting grain formation during alloy solidification through simulations can be computationally expensive. This talk explores GrainNN, a reduced-order model for epitaxial grain growth in additive manufacturing conditions. GrainNN is a sequence-to-sequence, long-short-term-memory neural network that evolves the dynamics of manually crafted features. Results have demonstrated the faster performance of GrainNN compared to phase field simulations. The model enables predictive simulations and uncertainty quantification of grain microstructure that were not previously possible.
