We investigate the lamellar growth of pearlite at the expense of austenite during the eutectoid transformation in steel. To begin with, we extend the Jackson-Hunt-type calculation (previously used to analyze eutectic transformation) to…

We develop a phase-field model of eutectic growth that uses three phase fields, admits strictly binary interfaces as stable solutions, and has a smooth free energy functional. We use this model to simulate oscillatory limit cycles in…

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…

We present a study of the melting dynamics of a two-phase eutectic solid. In situ, thin-sample experiments using a transparent eutectic alloy and two-dimensional phase field simulations calibrated for the very same alloy are combined to…

We use three-dimensional phase-field simulations to investigate the dynamics of the two-phase composite patterns formed upon during solidification of eutectic alloys. Besides the spatially periodic lamellar and rod patterns that have been…

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…

Mechanical properties of steels are significantly enhanced by retained austenite. Particularly, it has been shown that a recently developed heat-treatment technique called Quenching and Partitioning (Q\&P) stabilises austenite effectively.…

Eutectic two-phase cells, also known as eutectic colonies, are commonly observed during the solidification of ternary alloys when the composition is close to a binary eutectic valley. In analogy with the solidification cells formed in…

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…

Transformations accompanying shape-instability govern the morphological configuration and distribution of the phases in a microstructure. Owing to the influence of the microstructure on the properties of a material, the stability of…

Instability of a binary eutectic solidification front to morphological perturbations due to rejection of a ternary impurity leads to the formation of eutectic colonies. Whereas, the instability dynamics and the resultant mi- crostructural…

The phase-field method has become in recent years the method of choice for simulating microstructural pattern formation during solidification. One of its main advantages is that time-dependent three-dimensional simulations become feasible.…

A non-isothermal phase field model that captures both displacive and diffusive phase transformations in a unified framework is presented. The model is developed in a formal thermodynamic setting, which provides guidance on admissible…

We present adaptive finite element simulations of dendritic and eutectic solidification in binary and ternary alloys. The computations are based on a recently formulated phase-field model that is especially appropriate for modelling…

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 multiscale approach based on the phase-field model is developed to simulate homogeneous and heterogeneous formation of {\theta}' precipitates during high temperature ageing in Al-Cu alloys. The model parameters that determine the…

A thermodynamically consistent phase-field model is developed to study the non-isothermal grain coalescence during the sintering process, with a potential application to the simulation in unconventional sintering techniques, e.g. spark…

We consider both equilibrium and kinetic aspects of the phase separation (``thermal faceting") of thermodynamically unstable crystal surfaces into a hill--valley structure. The model we study is an Ising lattice gas for a simple cubic…

A phase-separation front will leave in its wake a phase-separated morphology that differs markedly from homogeneous phase-separation morphologies. For a purely diffusive system such a front, moving with constant velocity, will generate very…
