pyDiffusion

pyDiffusion combines tools like diffusion simulation, diffusion data smooth, forward simulation analysis (FSA), etc. to help people analyze diffusion data efficiently.

Dependencies

• Python 3.5+
• numpy, matplotlib, scipy, pandas

Installation

Via pip(recommend)

pip install pydiffusion

Examples

Diffusion Simulation

Based on Ni-Mo interdiffusion coefficients data at 1100C, simulate the diffusion process for 800 hours. See Diffusion Simulation Example.

Forward Simulation Analysis (FSA)

Calculate interdiffusion coefficients of Ni-Mo at 1100C based on raw diffusion data (1000 hours). See FSA Example.

Error Analysis

The interdiffusion coefficients in Ti-Zr system at 1000C are calculated using FSA. The error bounds of the diffusivity data are estimated using error analysis tool. See Error Analysis Example.
