“…Recently the use of magnetic field to adjust the microstructures of metallic material has attracted increasing interests. Magnetic field has been found to exert influence on metallurgical phenomena such as grain boundary migration [8,9], formation of texture [10,11], phase transformation [12][13][14] and atom diffusion [15,16]. It may provide additional options to control the nucleation and growth of DP nodules, and thus to suppress the DP reaction and increase the age-hardening response.…”
