Modeling recovery and recrystallization kinetics in cold-rolled Ti-Nb stabilized interstitial-free steel
K. Mukunthan,E. B. Hawbolt +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the recovery and recrystallization kinetics in an 80 pct cold-rolled Ti-Nb stabilized interstitial-free (IF) steel have been characterized for isothermal (500 to 760 °C) and continuous heating (0.025 °C s−1 to 20.2 °C S−1 annealing).

Kinetics of crystallization preceded by metastable-phase formation
Dimo Kashchiev,Kiyotaka Sato +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical description of the kinetics of overall crystallization when the appearance of the stable crystalline (SC) phase is preceded by the formation of a metastable phase is proposed.

Surface nucleated transformation kinetics in 2- and 3-dimensional finite systems
TL;DR: In this paper, phase transformation kinetics in 2D and 3D finite systems occurring by nucleation and growth, and in which nucleation occurs solely at the boundary edge, are considered.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in segregation and crystallization processes in multicomponent solutions, critical clusters may be formed and evolve via a continuous sequence of states with properties that may differ from the properties of corresponding macroscopic phases of the equilibrium phase diagram.
