Selecting Physics Interfaces
The Metal Processing Module contains six basic physics interfaces and two multiphysics interfaces. The basic physics interfaces are:
•
Metal Phase Transformation — For modeling general metallurgical phase transformations.
•
Austenite Decomposition — For modeling the specific case of austenite decomposing into a combination of destination phases, on cooling.
•
Austenite Decomposition, Kirkaldy–Venugopalan — For modeling the specific case of austenite decomposing into a combination of destination phases, on cooling. The interface is built upon the phase transformation models of Kirkaldy and Venugopalan.
•
Austenite Decomposition, Li–Niebuhr–Meekisho–Atteridge — For modeling the specific case of austenite decomposing into a combination of destination phases, on cooling. The interface is built upon the phase transformation models of Li, Niebuhr, Meekisho, and Atteridge.
•
Alpha–Beta Phase Transformation — For modeling phase transformations in α–β titanium alloys.
•
Carburization — For modeling carburization; the process by which carbon from a surrounding carbon rich environment diffuses into a component.
