Point defect concentrations in metastable Fe-C alloys.
Point defect species and concentrations in metastable Fe-C alloys are determined using density functional theory and a constrained free-energy functional. Carbon interstitials dominate unless iron vacancies are in significant excess, whereas excess carbon causes greatly enhanced vacancy concentration. Our predictions are amenable to experimental verification; they provide a baseline for rationa...
متن کاملtransformation in metastable Fe - Mn alloys
Metastable Fe-Mn alloys exhibit a non-thermoelastic martensitic transformation which is accompanied by a significant thermal effect (ca. 20 J/g). Among Fe-Mn alloys, the highest value of latent heat was registered in alloys with 17-18 wt. % Mn. In this work we investigate effects of carbon (up to 0.4 wt. %) and cold rolling (5-25% of thickness reduction) on the latent heat and the temperature h...
متن کاملHydrogen Effects on the Point Defect Spectrum in Fe-C Alloys
As part of a multi-scale approach for modeling hydrogen embrittlement in hardened steels we have investigated, employing density functional theory methods, the stability and concentrations of the point defect clusters present in metastable Fe-C-H alloys with vacancies. The defect spectrum is found to be strongly dependent on the local vacancy concentration, and for low hydrogen levels sharp hig...
متن کاملMany-body potential for point defect clusters in Fe-C alloys.
Modeling the consequences of crystalline defects requires efficient interaction sampling. Empirical potentials can identify relevant pathways if the energetics and configurations of competing defects are captured. Here, we develop such a potential for an alloy of arbitrary point defect concentration, body-centered cubic alpha-Fe supersaturated in C. This potential successfully calculates energe...
