REPORT


routes of steels and other advanced materials require detailed knowledge beyond what can be found in traditional phase diagrams and thermodynamic calculations. New experimental facilities, e.g. 3D-APFIM, hold promises of establishing the local state of phase interfaces. New theoretical development, e.g. based on solute-drag theory and phase-field, allow account for these effects in simulations.

The selection of articles in this issue of Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A serve as a starting point for scientific discussions and give directions for future research in the field. Hopefully that research will soon lead to a full understanding of these intriguing and important phenomena. Drs. A. Borgenstam, M. Selleby, and Professors B. Sundman and B. Uhrenius are gratefully acknowledged for all their efforts with the symposium. ˚ gren John A
