The onset and kinetics of martensitic transformations are controlled by impurities trapped during the transformation. For the alpha to omega transformation in Ti, ab initio methods yield the changes in both the relative stability of and energy barrier between the phases. Using the recently discovered transformation pathway, we study interstitial O, N, C; substitutional Al and V; and Ti interstitials and vacancies. The resulting microscopic picture explains the observations, specifically the suppression of the transformation in A-70 and Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloys.

Structural phase transitions are governed by the underlying atomic transformation mechanism; martensitic transformations can be separated into strain and shuffle components. A systematic pathway generation and sorting algorithm is presented and appli
ed to the problem of the titanium alpha to omega transformation under pressure. In this algorithm, all pathways are constructed within a few geometric limits, and efficiently sorted by their energy barriers. The geometry and symmetry details of the seven lowest energy barrier pathways are given. The lack of a single simple geometric criterion for determining the lowest energy pathway shows the necessity of atomistic studies for pathway determination.
Using classical molecular dynamics simulations, we study austenite to ferrite phase transformation in iron, focusing on the role of interface morphology. We compare two different morphologies; a textit{flat} interface in which the two phases are join
ed according to Nishiyama-Wasserman orientation relationship vs. a textit{ledged} one, having steps similar to the vicinal surface. We identify the atomic displacements along a misfit dislocation network at the interface leading to the phase transformation. In case of textit{ledged} interface, stacking faults are nucleated at the steps, which hinder the interface motion, leading to a lower mobility of the inter-phase boundary, than that of flat interface. Interestingly, we also find the temperature dependence of the interface mobility to show opposite trends in case of textit{flat} vs. textit{ledged} boundary. We believe that our study is going to present a unified and comprehensive view of martensitic transformation in iron with different interface morphology, which is lacking at present, as textit{flat} and textit{ledged} interfaces are treated separately in the existing literature.
We provide a complete quantitative explanation for the anisotropic thermal expansion of hcp Ti at low temperature. The observed negative thermal expansion along the c-axis is reproduced theoretically by means of a parameter free theory which involves
both the electron and phonon contributions to the free energy. The thermal expansion of titanium is calculated and found to be negative along the c-axis for temperatures below $sim$ 170 K, in good agreement with observations. We have identified a saddle-point Van Hove singularity near the Fermi level as the main reason for the anisotropic thermal expansion in $alpha-$titanium.
We propose a mathematical description of crystal structure: underlying translational periodicity together with the distinct atomic positions up to the symmetry operations in the unit cell. It is consistent with the international table of crystallogra
phy. By the Cauchy-Born hypothesis, such a description can be integrated with the theory of continuum mechanics to calculate a derived crystal structure produced by solid-solid phase transformation. In addition, we generalize the expressions for orientation relationship between the parent lattice and the derived lattice. The derived structure rationalizes the lattice parameters and the general equivalent atomic positions that assist the indexing process of X-ray diffraction analysis for low symmetry martensitic materials undergoing phase transformation. The analysis is demonstrated in a CuAlMn shape memory alloy. From its austenite phase (L2_1 face-centered cubic structure), we identify that the derived martensitic structure has the orthorhombic symmetry Pmmm with derived lattice parameters a_dv = 4.36491 AA, b_dv = 5.40865 AA and c_dv = 4.2402 AA, by which the complicated X-ray Laue diffraction pattern can be well indexed, and the orientation relationship can be verified.
The alpha/beta interface in Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo (Ti-6246) is investigated via centre of symmetry analysis, both as-grown and after 10% cold work. Semi-coherent interface steps are observed at a spacing of 4.5 +/-1.13 atoms in the as-grown condition, i
n good agreement with theory prediction (4.37 atoms). Lattice accommodation is observed, with elongation along [-1 2 -1 0]alpha and contraction along [1 0 -1 0]alpha . Deformed alpha exhibited larger, less coherent steps with slip bands lying in {110}beta. This indicates dislocation pile-up at the grain boundary, a precursor to globularisation, offering insight into the effect of deformation processing on the interface, which is important for titanium alloy processing route design.
