| Description | We are achieving a clearer picture of the role of carbon in dictating dislocation velocities in iron; and the structure of interfaces in the hierarchical lath martensite. |
| Exploitation Route | Ours is the theory arm of the project. By combining with the current findings of the experimental arm we are in a position to advise in the design of the new as quenched martensitic steels that we have proposed. |
