Abstract:During cooling of steels and cast irons, austenite can decompose by a eutectoid transformation into pearlite, a two-phased mixture of ferrite and cementite. Since the internal lamellar structure is commonly too fine to be distinguished on the scale of the austenite grain structure, pearlite is often modelled as an effective, pseudo-single phase. Such a pragmatic treatment would also be desirable to reduce the computational effort of large-scale multi-phase-field simulations, but a fundamental hindrance is that… Show more
