SIGMA(9):

  • $\gamma$ = austenite percentage
  • $P_r$ = proeutectoid percentage
  • $P_e$ = pearlite percentage
  • $B_a$ = bainite percentage
  • $M_a$ = martensite percentage
  • $f_x$, $f_y$ = conductive flow
  • $f_c$ = heat absorbed by the increase of temperature
  • $f_q$ = heat absorbed by phase change
