It is used in the analysis of volume changes occurring during the transformation from austenite to ferrite. This subroutine uses calculated values for the lattice parameters for a given volume fraction of ferrite to evaluate the expected fractional change in volume, and produces as output the difference in this calculated value and the experimentally measured fractional volume change.

MAP_STEEL_FPARAM is used in the analysis of the transformation from austenite to ferrite using MAP_STEEL_DILAT. It uses calculated values for the lattice parameters for a given volume fraction of ferrite to evaluate the expected fractional change in volume, using equation (4) of reference 1. The output, a1, is the difference in this calculated value (dV/V) from the experimentally measured fractional volume change:
The experimental fractional volume change is measured from the fractional change in length (dL/L) and taken to be approximately 3.dL/L. This subroutine is used as part of an iterative procedure to calculate the volume fraction of ferrite present.
None.
The lattice paramters may be specified in any units, provided the same units are used in all cases. Nanometres or Ångstroms are recommended. The specified values for the lattice parameters should be appropriate for the temperature of the material under examination.
