Modelling of the diffusional austenite-ferrite transformation

Abstract

The austenite-ferrite transformation is the key metallurgical tool to tailor properties of low alloyed steels and remains an active area of research. Models have yet to be developed with truly predictive capabilities for phase transformations in multi-component commercial steels. This review provides a critical analysis of the various austenite-to-ferrite diffusional transformation model approaches that have been significantly broadened over …
