Reply to Comments on Comments on Kinetics Model of Isothermal Pearlite Formation in a 0.4C-1.6Mn Steel

A theoretical model to calculate the evolution of austenite-to-pearlite transformation with time at a very wide temperature range is presented. The model is based on thermodynamic calculations under partitioning local equilibrium (PLE) and no-partitioning local equilibrium (NPLE) conditions.
