Recrystallization and Deformation Phenomena
This lecture covers the concepts of recrystallization and deformation phenomena, including the energy variations during homogeneous germination, the role of capillary forces, and the kinetics of recrystallization. It also discusses the influence of temperature, strain rate, and chemical composition on the recrystallization process, as well as the effects of elements in solid solutions. The slides illustrate the critical values for stability in deformation and the growth of grains in the presence of particles. Additionally, it explores the anchoring of joints by precipitates and the different grain growth scenarios in materials.
