Displacive transformations are those in which the change in crystal structure is achieved by a physical deformation. Reconstructive transformations occur by the long-range diffusion of atoms, with the migration happening in such a way that the strain energy is minimised. The debate on the mechanism of soiid-state phase transformations is explored in this movie, which is intended to be the second in a series which examines the choreography of atoms and their implications.
