Development of Ferritic-Pearlitic, Pearlitic and Spheroidite Initial Structures for Simulating the Austenitization in Unalloyed Steels

Article Preview

Abstract:

Our aim was to develop initial structures similar to the real structures of unalloyed steels that could later be used for simulating austenitization. Both simple models and models that can be compared to the real structures were developed. In our paper, it is described how the initial structures were developed by using digitalized microscopic images.
