Prediction of dendrite arm spacings in unsteady-and steady-state heat flow of unidirectionally solidified binary alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, various theoretical dendrite and cell spacing formulas have been tested against experimental data obtained in unsteady-and steady-state heat flow conditions, and it was shown that all of them failed in the case of primary spacings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pearlite reaction
M. P. Puls,J. S. Kirkaldy +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a critical appraisal of theory and experiments for both isothermal and forced velocity pearlite is presented, and a new perturbation procedure for definition of the optimal steady-state spacing is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of metals by short circuit and lattice diffusion of oxygen
TL;DR: In this paper, an expression for the initial oxidation rates of metals based upon the model of inward movement of oxygen through the lattice and along low resistance paths within the superficial oxide film was derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solubility of niobium carbide and niobium carbonitride in alloyed austenite and ferrite
TL;DR: In this paper, the available data on the solubility of Niobium carbide and niobium carbonitride in plain carbon and alloyed austenite has been analyzed via dilute solution thermodynamics with a view to establishing a consistent set of interaction parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of decomposition of eutectoids assuming local equilibrium and phase boundary diffusion
J.M. Shapiro,J. S. Kirkaldy +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the kinetic parameters of the lamellar decomposition of eutectoids from a model which assumes local equilibrium across and diffusion along the interface between the growing nodule and the parent phase.
