TL;DR: In this paper, the drag on a grain boundary produced by an impurity atmosphere is examined in detail, and is found to depend on the velocity of the grain boundary relative to the diffusivity of the impurity and its interaction with the grain boundaries.

TL;DR: In this paper, the anisotropy of all factors influencing the mechanism of spinodal decomposition was considered for crystals of cubic symmetry, and it was shown that elastic aeolotropy should give rise to {100} plane waves if 2 C 44 − C 11 + C 12 > 0 or {111} plane wave if 2C 44 − c 11 + c 12

TL;DR: In this article, a new free energy function for coherent nucleation in isotrpic solids was obtained by adding a suitably defined elastic energy term to the free energy, which has all the properties of a thermodynamic potential for coherent processes.
