Aims
On completion of this TLP you should:
- Know how limited diffusion in the solid and liquid phases affects the distribution of solute in a solidified alloy, and be able to predict these effects in certain samples.
- Understand the factors that control the shape of a solid growth front, and the resulting microstructure.
