A vner Friedman Willard Miller. Jr. PREFACE Much of our traditional knowledge of materials and processes is achievf'd by observa tion and analysis of small departures from equilibrium. Many materials, especially modern alloys, ceramics, and their composites, experience not only larger but more dramatic changes, such as the occurrence of phase transitions and t.he creation of defect structures, when viewed at the microscopic scale. How is this observed, how can it be interpreted, and how does it influence macroscopic behavior? These are the principle concerns of this volume, which constitutes the proceedings of an IMA workshop dedicated to these issues.

Book Phase Transitions in Solids Under High Pressure

Download or read book Phase Transitions in Solids Under High Pressure written by Vladimir Davydovich Blank and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-10-25 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of high-pressure techniques has become popular for studying the nature of substances and phenomena occurring in them, especially as a means of obtaining new materials (synthesis under high pressure) and processing known materials (hydroextrusion). A product of many years of research by the authors and their colleagues, Phase Transitions in Solids under High Pressure discusses the relationships of phase transformations in solids under high pressure, the mechanism of these transformations, crystal geometry, the effect of deformation, the conditions of formation, and preservation of the high-pressure phases under normal pressure. The book begins with an introduction that describes the relationship of the thermodynamics of phase transformations and the kinetics of the transformations. This is followed by a chapter explaining the equipment and mostly original procedures for investigating phase transformation in solids under high hydrostatic and quasi-hydrostatic pressures. The book covers phase transformations under high pressure in a wide temperature range in the elements carbon, silicon, germanium, titanium, zirconium, iron, gallium, and cerium as well as in titanium- and iron-based alloys and AIBVII, AIIBVI, and AIIIBV compounds. In addition, the book examines the kinetics of phase transformations in iron-based alloys in isobaric–isothermal conditions. The authors present results for phase transformations in deformation under high pressure, describe several non-trivial effects associated with phase transformations under high pressure, and analyze the kinetics and hysteresis of high-temperature and low-temperature phase transformations. They conclude by describing the role of investigations under high pressure for determining general relationships governing phase transformations in solids.

Book The Physics of Structural Phase Transitions

Download or read book The Physics of Structural Phase Transitions written by Minoru Fujimoto and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-06 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phase transitions in which crystalline solids undergo structural changes present an interesting problem in the interplay between the crystal structure and the ordering process. This text, intended for readers with some prior knowledge of condensed-matter physics, emphasizes the basic physics behind such spontaneous structural changes in crystals. Starting with the relevant thermodynamic principles, the book discusses the nature of order variables and their collective motion in a crystal lattice; in a structural phase transition a singularity in such a collective mode is responsible for the lattice instability, as revealed by soft phonons. This mechanism is analogous to the interplay of a charge-density wave and a periodically deformed lattice in low-dimensional conductors. The text also describes experimental methods for modulated crystal structures and gives examples of structural changes in representative systems. The book is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical, part includes such topics as: the Landau theory of phase transitions; statistics, correlations and the mean-field approximation; pseudospins and their collective modes; soft lattice modes and pseudospin condensates; lattice imperfections and their role in the phase transitions of real crystals. The second part discusses experimental studies of modulated crystals using x-ray diffraction, neutron inelastic scattering, light scattering, dielectric measurements, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Book Phase Transitions in Soft Condensed Matter

Download or read book Phase Transitions in Soft Condensed Matter written by Tormod Riste and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Geilo, Norway, between 4 - 14 April 1989. This Institute was the tenth in a series held at Geilo on the subject of phase transitions. It was the first to be concerned with the growing area of soft condensed matter, which is neither ordinary solids nor ordinary liquids, but somewhere in between. The Institute brought together many lecturers, students and active researchers in the field from a wide range of NATO and some non-NATO countries, with financial support principally from the NATO Scientific Affairs Division but also from Institutt for energiteknikk, the Nor wegian Research Council for Science and the Humanities (NAVF), The Nordic Institute for Theoretical Atomic Physics (NORDITA), the Norwegian Physical Society and VISTA, a reserach cooperation between the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters and Den norske stats oljeselskap a.s (STATOIL). The organizing committee would like to thank all these contributors for their help in promoting an exciting and rewarding meeting, and in doing so are confident that they echo the appreciation also of all the participants. 50ft condensed matter is characterized by weak interactions between polyatomic constituents, by important·thermal fluctuations effects, by mechanical softness and by a rich range of behaviours. The main emphasis at this Institute was on the fundamental collective physics, but prepar ation techniques and industrial applications were also considered.

Book Solid Solid Phase Transitions Driven by Configurational Forces

Download or read book Solid Solid Phase Transitions Driven by Configurational Forces written by Peicheng Zhu and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials science is an interdisciplinary field that has emerged as one of the central pillars of the modern physical sciences. A central tenet of it is that many of the properties of a material are dominated by microstructures of the material. Therefore it is extremely important to study the formation and evolution of microstructure, so that we can get correct microstructure and gain desired properties of the material. As an attempt to simulate, at the meso-scale, the evolution of microstructure, we employ phase-field approach that is still young but has now become an important and powerful tool, to propose a new model for the microstructure evolution due to martensitic phase transitions driven by configurational forces in elastic solids. The model is an elliptic-parabolic coupled system of partial differential equations, which differs from the Allen-Cahn model by a gradient term, and renders hybrid features of a Hamiltonian equation and a parabolic one. The existence of weak solutions, traveling waves, etc. to this model in 1-D case is proved, and numerical simulations are carried out for some slightly simplified cases. Many problems on this model remain open, some are listed.
