reprinted to correct errors in the prior printing, Phase Transformation in Metals and Alloys …

The mechanism of the bainite transformation in steels is reviewed, beginning with a
summary of the early research and finishing with an assessment of the transformation in the …

In Nucleation in Condensed Matter, key theoretical models for nucleation are developed and
experimental data are used to discuss their range of validity. A central aim of this book is to …

Handbook, Second Edition, this book examines the behavior and processes involved in …

There are difficult problems in materials science where the generai concepts might be
understood but which are not as yet amenableto scientific treatment. Weare at the sametime …

This reference presents the classical perspectives that form the basis of heat treatment
processes while incorporating descriptions of the latest advances to impact this enduring …

Bainite has been obtained by heat treatment at temperatures as low as 125° C in a high
carbon, high silicon steel. This has had the effect of greatly refining the microstructure, which …

Recent work on the mechanism of the bainite transformation has shown that the extent of
transformation to bainitic ferrite, and the carbon content of the remaining austenite, can be …
