Pattern formation during melting of lamellar eutectics

Rahul Nellissery Rajan, Rajesh Kumari Rajendran, Guillaume Boussinot +3

We present a study of the melting dynamics of a two-phase eutectic solid. In situ, thin-sample experiments using a transparent eutectic alloy and two-dimensional phase field simula…

From irregular to regular eutectic growth in the Al-Al3Ni system: in situ observations during directional solidification

Paul Chao, Shanmukha Kiran Aramanda, Xianghui Xiao +3

We investigate the irregular eutectic growth dynamics of the Al-Al3Ni alloy, in which one of the solid phases (Al3Ni) grows faceted from the liquid. Leveraging in situ optical micr…

Phase boundary anisotropy and its effects on the maze-to-lamellar transition in a directionally solidified Al-Al2Cu eutectic

Ulrike Hecht, Janin Eiken, Silvère Akamatsu +1

Solid-solid phase boundary anisotropy is a key factor controlling the selection and evolution of non-faceted eutectic patterns during directional solidification. This is most remar…

Influence of morphological instability on grain boundary trajectory during directional solidification

Supriyo Ghosh, Alain Karma, Mathis Plapp +3

The interplay between the diffusion-controlled dynamics of a solidification front and the trajectory of a grain boundary groove at the solid-liquid interface is studied by means of…

Hexagonal eutectic solidification patterns operating near a marginal stability point

Mikael Perrut, Silvère Akamatsu, Sabine Bottin-Rousseau +1

We study the long-time dynamics of hexagonal directional-solidification patterns in bulk samples of a transparent eutectic alloy using an optical method which permits real-time obs…

An experimental method for the in-situ observation of eutectic growth patterns in bulk samples of transparent alloys

Sabine Bottin-Rousseau, Mikael Perrut, Christian Picard +2

We present an experimental method for the in-situ observation of directional-solidification fronts in bulk samples of transparent eutectic alloys. The growth front is observed obli…
