TY - JOUR ID - TI - Temporally and Spatially Localized Phase Transformations in Ferrous Alloys for Materials Processing Applications AU - Sameer A. Mohammed AU - Enad S. Kadhim AU - Rasool M. Alwan PY - 2021 VL - 17 IS - 1 SP - 29 EP - 32 JO - Iraqi Journal of Applied Physics المجلة العراقية للفيزياء التطبيقية SN - 18132065 23091673 AB - In this study, the temporally and spatially localized phase transformations in ferrous alloys were investigated. These transformations were temporally restricted by rapid irradiation with laser pulses and quenching by liquid nitrogen jet flow. The spatial localization of these phase transformations was carried out by placing the sample of ferrous alloy between two thermal and electrical insulators to prevent any heat or charge flow towards the surrounding. The optical microscopy was used for introducing the microstructures of the ferrous alloy samples. It was shown that the temporal and spatial localization can enhance the eutectic and eutectoid positions on the iron-carbon phase diagrams to which the ferrous alloy are classified.
