Abstract

Lightweight refractory high-entropy alloys (LRHEAs) represent an emerging class of structural materials that integrate low density with exceptional strength and outstanding high-temperature stability, positioning them as promising candidates for aerospace and advanced industrial applications. Nevertheless, the design of LRHEAs is challenged by their vast compositional space, complex multi-objective performance trade-offs, and the inefficiency of conventional trial-and-error experimental approaches. In recent years, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a transformative tool in this domain, offering the capacity to analyze high-dimensional datasets and uncover hidden correlations between composition, processing,…
