摘要
A cellular automata simulation based on an instantaneous growth approximation is developed to model the nanocrystallization kinetics. In this frame, the time required for a nucleus to grow up to its maximum size is neglected in comparison with the time required for the crystallization process. This approach allows a simple interpretation of the very low values of Avrami exponent found for nanocrystallization processes, <= 1, in the theoretical frame of Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov theory. Kinetics and microstructure predictions from the simulations are compared with experimental data for FeCoNbB alloys and a good qualitative agreement is found. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
