  2. 1. Deviation From Local Equilibrium During the Austenite to Ferrite Transformation in Steel-A Modelling Approach

    Author : Joakim Odqvist; KTH; []
    Keywords : Interface; Solute drag; Paraequilibrium; Simulation; Local Equilibrium;

    Abstract : This thesis highlights the role of phase interfaces on phasetransformations in metallic materials. The deviation from localequilibrium at the moving phase interface has been analysed interms of solute drag theory and finite interface mobility. Inparticular the planar growth of proeutectoid ferrite fromaustenite in steel has been studied. READ MORE

  4. 2. Phase-field modeling of surface-energy driven processes

    Author : Klara Asp Grönhagen; John Ågren; Suzana Fries; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phase-field method; surface energy; solute drag; solid-state sintering; multicomponent multiphase flow; wetting; liquid-phase sintering; spinodal decomposition; CALPHAD; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Surface energy plays a major role in many phenomena that are important in technological and industrial processes, for example in wetting, grain growth and sintering. In this thesis, such surface-energy driven processes are studied by means of the phase-field method. READ MORE

  5. 3. Simulation of diffusional processes in alloys : techniques and applications

    Author : Henrik Strandlund; John Ågren; John Morral; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diffusion; Kirkendall effect; Phase transformations; Random walk; Solute drag; Interfacial mobility; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns computer simulation of diffusional processes in alloys. The main focus is on the development of simulation techniques for diffusion in single-phase domains, but also diffusion controlled phase-transformations and interfacial processes are discussed. READ MORE

  6. 4. Aspects of creep-fatigue in gas turbine hot parts

    Author : Magnus Hasselqvist; Gunnar Härkegård; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : creep; fatigue; TMF; gas turbine; modelling; life assessment; ageing; micro-structure; solute drag; back stress; Haynes 230; IN792;

    Abstract : The goal is reliable creep-fatigue lifing methodology for industrial gas turbines.A literature study on high temperature materials used in gas turbines reveals that:• Most testing/modelling work has focused on characterisation and modelling of material response in isothermal standard tests, i.e. creep, tensile and LCF tests.

  7. 5. Computational tools for simulation of phase transformations

    Author : Mikael Schalin; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A new software package, Thermite, for thermodynamiccalculations and process simulation is developed around theThermo-Calc databank. Thermite is a computational toolbox forequilibrium calculations and simulation of phasetransformations. It provides graphic visualisation and allowsmanipulation of the presented data. READ MORE
