Effect of C on the Martensitic Transformation in Fe-C Alloys in the Presence of Pre-Existing Defects: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to investigate the atomic effects of carbon (C) addition in Fe on the martensitic phase transformation in the presence of pre-existing defects such as stacking faults and twin boundaries. The pre-existing defect structures in Fe-C alloys have the same effect o...
