Understanding bainite formation in steels

The formation of bainite in steels is one of the most intensely researched topics in the field of metallurgy. Despite the importance of bainite among the modern-day steels, even a qualitative theory to explain the bainite formation still remains a subject of controversy due to the complexity of its formation mechanism. Currently, two competing...

Solid State Phase Transformations in Medium Manganese Steels

Steels are still, and probably will remain in future, the primary choice for applications as structural materials. This is not only because of the reasonable ratios of properties over production costs, but also owing to the versatile properties realisable via variety of microstructures achieved by controlling the solid-state phase...
