This paper proposes an alternative to the Avrami equation capable of describing whole transformation curves with significant fitting-correlations. The model bears physically meaningful parameters which permit considering the initial transformation kinetics independently from the subsequent microstructural evolution. Data of martensite, bainite, recrystallization, and pearlite transformations validate the model. Further to the expeditious description of transformation curves, the model guides the modeling of specific mechanisms.
