Evolution of mixed cementite morphologies during non-cooperative eutectoid transformation in Fe–C steels

Submitted by Kumar Ankit on

We numerically investigate the characteristics of concurrent carbon redistribution pathways, as the ferrite–austenite front evolves during an isothermal eutectoid transformation starting from a random distribution of preexisting cementite particle. By analyzing the influence of initial interparticle spacing, arrangement and undercooling (below A1 temperature) on the curvature-driven coarsening, we generalize the present criteria of non-cooperative eutectoid transformation.

Application of phase-field method in Geoscience - Microstructure evolution

Submitted by Kumar Ankit on

The recently published work shows the application of phase-field methods, which is more popular in the material science community, in the area of geophysics.
