Synopsis

The processing-microstructure-property relationships in steels continue to present challenges to researchers because of the complexity of phase transformation reactions and the wide spectrum of microstructures and properties achievable. This major two-volume work summarises the current state of research on phase transformations in steels and its implications for the emergence of new steels with enhanced engineering properties. Volume 2 reviews current research on diffusionless transformations and phase transformations in high strength steels, as well as advances in modelling and analytical techniques which underpin this research.

Key Features: alongside its companion volume, this major two-volume work summarises the current state of research on phase transformations in steels; reviews research on diffusionless transformations and phase transformations in high strength steels; examines advances in modelling and the use of advanced analytical techniques to improve understanding of phase transformations in steels.

Contents: Part 1 Diffusionless transformations: Crystallography of martensite transformations in steels; Morphology and substructure of martensite in steels; Kinetics of martensite transformations in steels; Shape memory in ferrous alloys; Tempering of martensite in carbon steels. Part 2 Phase transformations in high strength steels: Phase transformations in high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels; Phase transformations in transformation induced plasticity (TRIP)-assisted multiphase steels; Phase transformations in quenched and partitioned steels; Phase transformations in advanced bainitic steels; Phase transformations in high manganese twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steels; Phase transformations in maraging steels. Part 3 Modelling phase transformations: First principles in modelling phase transformations in steels; Phase field modelling of phase transformations in steels; Molecular dynamics modelling of martensitic transformations in steels; Neural networks modelling of phase transformations in steels. Part 4 Advanced analytical techniques for studying phase transformations in steels: Application of modern transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques to the study of phase transformations in steel; Atom probe tomography for studying phase transformations in steels; Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques for studying phase transformations in steels; Application of synchrotron and neutron scattering techniques for tracking phase transformations in steels.
