Nucleation and Growth Transformations in Vacuum Plasma Sprayed Ti-6Al-4V Alloy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This study investigates isothermal transformation kinetics in Ti-6Al-4V alloys structures produced by vacuum plasma spray forming. As-sprayed samples were homogenized in the β phase followed by fast cooling to the two-phase temperature region, then quenching to suppress further transformation. The microstructure of heat-treated specimens was examined by optical microscopy and equilibrium phases were measured using image analysis. The kinetics of the β → α+β phase transformation are revealed by plotting the amount of α-phase obtained over a 10 to 60 s interval at isothermal temperatures of 800, 850, 900, and 950 °C. Corresponding phase transformation rates are also calculated based on Johnson-Mehl-Avrami (JMA) theory. At temperatures below 900 °C, the main phase transformation mechanism is homogeneous nucleation and growth of α-phase. At higher temperatures, phase transformations are driven by two mechanisms: the formation of α-phase in grain boundaries and α-plate nucleation and growth.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
