Abstract
Many essential properties of iron alloys depend on what actually happens when one
allotropic form gives way to another, i.e. on the mechanism of phase change. The dependence of the
mechanical properties on the atomic mechanism by which bainite and martensite grow is the focus of
this paper. The discussion is illustrated in the context of some common engineering design parameters,
and with a brief example of the inverse problem in which the mechanism may be a function of the
mechanical properties.
