Abstract

Ostwald coarsening of dispersed Al3Mg2 particles distributed in an aluminum-magnesium alloy (80% Al+20% Mg) is used to illustrate a method of determining the similarities and differences between an experimental histogram (from an image) and a corresponding theoretical distribution, chosen from a collection of different solutions.

The determination of a link between the indicators in experimental histograms and the processes generating the transformation is demonstrated. In particular, solubility and growth of Al3Mg2 microparticles upon heating of an alloy strongly depend on the variations in structure and properties of material near interphase boundaries.
