Basics of Thermodynamics and Phase Stability → Application to Steel Processing

This learning path guides undergraduate engineering students through the fundamentals of the iron-carbon phase diagram, starting from essential concepts in thermodynamics and phase diagrams. It covers the key phases (austenite, ferrite, cementite), the eutectoid reaction, and the microstructures of hypoeutectoid and hypereutectoid steels, culminating in an exploration of how this knowledge applies to steel processing.
