Abstract

Solids produced as a result of a fast quench across a freezing or a structural transition get stuck in long-lived metastable configurations of distinct morphology, sensitively dependent on the processing history. Martensites are particularly well studied examples of nonequilibrium solid-solid transformations. Since there are some excellent reviews on the subject, we shall, in this brief article, mainly present a summary of our work on the nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of Martensites.
