Talk:Diffusionless transformation

Merge

The martensite article is very convoluted because it mixes topics between martensite in steel and martensitic transformations (and therefore "martensite" in other materials). I think the martensitic transformation information should be merged into the diffusionless transformations article to begin with and then if it garners enough attention it can become its own article.

I dont think that article is much better than this one, but I agree that would be a better place to talk about martensitic transformations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.100.36 (talk) 18:08, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

the transformation to martensite distorts this cube by interstitial carbon atoms

This is not correct. Even very low carbon austenitic stainless steel can undergo partial martensitic transformation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.81.223.66 (talk) 15:27, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Use less technical language

This can surely be phrased in a less technical way to make it easier to understand. Hillellaj (talk) 18:39, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Strain Matrix

"Homogeneous lattice-distortive strains, also known as Bain strains, transform one Bravais lattice into a different one. This can be represented by a strain matrix S which transforms one vector, y, into a new vector, x:"

y = Sx"

I don't have any previous knowledge about this topic so I don't want to make a potentially incorrect edit but this seems to me like y and x have been switched around and either the equation should be x = Sy or the text should say "transforms one vector x into a new vector y"

Is there something I'm missing here? Yoneda-Emma (talk) 11:18, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
