Dislocations Help Initiate the α–γ Phase Transformation in Iron—An Atomistic Study
Using molecular dynamics simulation, we studied the influence of pre-existing dislocations on the austenitic and the martensitic phase transformations in pure iron. The simulations were performed in a thin-film geometry with (100) surfaces. We found that dislocations alleviate the transformation by...
