Full Field Model Describing Phase Front Propagation, Transformation Strains, Chemical Partitioning, and Diffusion in Solid-Solid Phase Transformations

Aarne Pohjonen

Summary: A novel mathematical formulation is proposed to describe the growth of phase in solid-to-solid phase transformations, focusing on the austenite to ferrite transformation. The model considers the effects of transformation eigenstrains, local strains, and partitioning and diffusion. The phase front is modeled as a diffuse field and its propagation is described by the advection equation, reducing to the level-set equation for transformation only in the interface normal direction. Numerical tests compare the current approach to sharp interface models and validate the mathematical model.

In situ TEM observations of the growth of bainitic ferrite in an Fe-0.3C-3Mn-1.5Si-0.15Mo steel

John Nutter et al.

Summary: This study utilized in situ transmission electron microscopy to observe the growth of bainitic ferrite in Fe-0.3C-3Mn-1.5Si-0.15Mo steel at 300 degrees C. The study achieved a higher spatio-temporal resolution compared to previous studies. The growth rate of bainitic ferrite exhibited significant variations, with the highest rate exceeding 30,000 nm/s. The observations revealed both sheaves with visible sub units and individual laths during growth.

Grain growth competition during melt pool solidification - Comparing phase-field and cellular automaton models

S. M. Elahi et al.

Summary: A comparison between phase-field (PF) and cellular automaton (CA) simulations in predicting microstructure development during solidification processing revealed that detailed microscopic features related to transient growth conditions and solid-liquid interface stability can only be captured by PF simulations. While refinement of the CA grid partially addressed the disagreement between PF and CA predictions, overall grain distributions lead to a better agreement between the two methods, with some variability depending on the melt pool shape and CA grid.

Numerical and experimental study on thermo-mechanical processing of medium-carbon steels at low temperatures for achieving ultrafine-structured bainite

Aarne Pohjonen et al.

Summary: In this study, a dynamic thermomechanical processing model was constructed using a combination of experimental and numerical approaches to simulate phase transformation from austenite to ultrafine bainitic laths and design suitable cooling paths. Calibration of numerical models was achieved through physical thermomechanical simulation experiments and hot rolling/water cooling experiments. The calibrated numerical models effectively simulated the laboratory processing stages, leading to the desired microstructure evolution. Microstructural analysis combined with mechanical property evaluation confirmed the results, showing that calibrated numerical simulations are a valuable tool for designing thermomechanical processing paths.

Numerical simulations of gradient cooling technique for controlled production of differential microstructure in steel strip or plate

Aarne Pohjonen

Summary: Numerical studies were conducted to investigate the controlled production of a microstructure in steel strips or plates that changes with the plate length. The results show that by cooling different parts of the plate to different temperatures, it is possible to create alternating bainite and polygonal ferrite regions.
