- To enable coupling of predictions of microstructure with mechanical properties a phase-field model simulating elastic strain energy on the coarsening behaviour of precipitates was developed and calibrated using High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy. In response to earlier phase-field models that neglected elastic transformation strain, here the effect of the elastic transformation strain upon transformation kinetics and thermodynamical stability has been incorporated. It is demonstrated that accurate simulation of the coarsening of precipitation impacting mechanical properties of the material is possible. The model has been implemented by Tata Steel RD to refine in-house predictive capability. [Petra Seda, Tata Steel; petra.seda@tatasteeleurope.com]
