Does THERMODYNAMIC process affect phase transition in solid state metals

[oghenez]

I was reading an article about phase transition, i read about thermodynamic process such as

Adiabatic process - a process with no heat transfer into or out of the system.
Isochoric process - a process with no change in volume, in which case the system does no work.
Isobaric process - a process with no change in pressure.
Isothermal process - a process with no change in temperature.

Does this processes affect phase transition in solid state metals of physics

Thanks

for the question! Yes, these thermodynamic processes can affect phase transitions in solid state metals. In particular, adiabatic and isothermal processes affect phase transitions by controlling the temperature and pressure of the metal as it passes through the transition. Isochoric and isobaric processes can also affect the rate at which the metal passes through the transition.
