Simulation By Cellular Automata Of The (Re) Crystallization Of AMatrix Containing An Inert Second Phase
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Two-dimensional cellular automata simulations were carried out to study thecase of the crystallization (or recrystallization) of a matrix containing aninert, immobile second phase. A range of particle area fractions and aspectratios were investigated under continuous grain nucleation conditions,assuming that the effect of particles is limited to geometric impingementupon contact with the growing grains. Systematic deviations from theclassical Johnson, Mehl, Avrami, Kolmogo-rov equation for single-phasematerials are observed with increasing particle aspect ratio and particlefraction. Inert particles also influence both mean size and mean aspectratio of the final grains.
