austenite to pearlite transformation

[vmattosferreir]

Hello,

I was wondering whether it is possible to simulate in MICRESS the austenite to pearlite phase transformation in a steel containing vanadium.

Kind regards,
Vitoria.

Dear Vitoria,

I am not an expert of vanadium steels, but I don't see a reason why not...

You may try to do so either fully spatially resolved for a limited number of cementite lamellae, or on the grain length scale by using the "unresolved" effective eutectoid model.
