In this study, a generalized method based upon nonextensive statistics is presented for nucleation and growth processes in a thin layer between two interfaces. It is shown that the presented mathematical model, which uses an index called the entropic index that measures the nonextensivity of the...

Some limitations of Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov (JMAK) equation, which is used widely for describing kinetics of phase transformation, were demonstrated using probabilistic analysis and Monte Carlo simulations [Acta Mater. 48 (2000) 4217]. As well-known, JMAK equation predicts correctly...
