What is it about?
This is about the Schaeffler diagram, an important tool in welding of stainless steels, we use here computational thermodynamics to justify this empirical tool, showing it has deep foundation in the thermodynamics of alloys.

Why is it important?
Empirical tools are widely used in engineering, but from time to time it is important to show that they can be traced back from science.
Perspectives
This was an interesting work, I started these calculations as a student exercise for the discipline Computational Thermodynamics Laboratory in the Escola Politecnica. Then I approached Prof. Sergio Brandi and we started working together in this theme, opening a collaboration between our groups.
