Abstract
In this article a phase-field model to investigate the formation of eutectic structures in a Ti-Fe alloy with high elastic misfit is introduced. Based on linear microelasticity theory, an elastic model is designed to incorporate the elastic energy into the phase-field formalism and later on adopted to growth of multiple nuclei with arbitrary orientations by including the orientation energy in phase-field ansatz. By using this model, we investigate the free growth of a limited number of eutectic nuclei and examine the influence of orientation free energies on elastic fields and the resulting microstructure.
