We describe our optical and electron-microscopy observations of pearlite structures in eutectoid steels which seem to imply that the mechanisms of formation of pearlite colonies in these steels differ from those observed earlier for…
The non-cooperative eutectoid transformation relies on the presence of pre-existing cementite particles in the parent austenitic phase and yields a product, popularly known as the divorced eutectoid. In isothermal conditions, two of the…
Phase-field simulations of the martensitic transformation (MT) in the austenitic matrix, which has already undergone the plastic deformation, are carried out. For this purpose the elasto-plastic phase-field approach of incoherent MT…
We investigate lamellar three-phase patterns that form during the directional solidification of ternary eutectic alloys in thin samples. A distinctive feature of this system is that many different geometric arrangements of the three phases…
Solidification is an important process in many alloy processing routes. The solidified microstructure of alloys is usually made up of dendrites, eutectics or a combination of both. The evolving morphologies are largely determined by the…
Numerous full-field numerical methods exist concerning the digital description of polycrystalline materials and the modeling of their evolution during thermomechanical treatments. However, these strategies are globally dedicated to the…
A model of pearlite colony formation in carbon steels with ab-initio parameterization is proposed. The model describes the process of decomposition of austenite and cementite formation through a metastable intermediate structure by taking…
In this paper, we investigate three-phase eutectic growth during thin-film directional solidification of a model symmetric ternary eutectic alloy. In contrast to two-phase eutectics that have only a single possibility,…
Many structural materials (metal alloys, polymers, minerals, etc.) are formed by quenching liquids into crystalline solids. This highly non-equilibrium process often leads to polycrystalline growth patterns that are broadly termed…
Materials which can undergo slow diffusive transformations as well as fast displacive transformations are studied using the phase-field method. The model captures the essential features of the time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams,…
We carry out molecular dynamics simulations of nanoindentation to investigate the effect of cementite size and temperature on the deformation behavior of nanocomposite pearlite composed of alternating ferrite and cementite layers. We find…
The induction hardening behavior of a new, hot-rolled 0.4 wt.% carbon steel with the two different starting microstructures of upper and lower bainite has been simulated using a Gleeble 3800. The effect of heating rate in the range 1 - 500…
In situ neutron diffraction of the uniaxial tension test was used to study the effect of the surrounding matrix microstructure on the mechanical stability of retained austenite in high-carbon bearing steels. Comparing the samples with…
Partitioning at phase boundaries of complex steels is important for their properties. We present atom probe tomography results across martensite / austenite interfaces in a precipitation-hardened maraging TRIP steel (12.2 Mn, 1.9 Ni, 0.6…
Several experimental techniques are used for phase identification and microstructure characterization of austempered vermicular cast irons (XRD, SEM, TEM and Mossbauer spectroscopy). Acicular structures were found to be composed by ferrite…
It is well documented in many experiments that crystallographic effects play an important role in the generation of two-phase patterns during the solidification of eutectic alloys. In particular, in lamellar composites, large patches of…
We analyze the effect of interphase boundary anisotropy on the dynamics of lamellar eutectic solidification fronts, in the limit that the lamellar spacing varies slowly along the envelope of the front. In the isotropic case, it is known…
Directional solidification of lamellar eutectic structures submitted to uniaxial stress is investigated. In the spirit of an approximation first used by Jackson and Hunt, we calculate the stress tensor for a two-dimensional crystal with…
This work integrates in-situ neutron diffraction and crystal plasticity finite element modeling to study the kinematic stability of retained austenite in high carbon bearing steels. The presence of a kinematically metastable retained…
The diffusion-controlled growth and microstructural evolution at the interface of aluminide coatings and different substrates such as Ni-base superalloys and steel are reviewed. Quantitative diffusion analysis indicates that the diffusion…
