A '''diffusionless transformation''' is a [[Phase transition|phase change]] that occurs without the long-range [[diffusion]] of [[atoms]] but rather by some form of cooperative, homogeneoushomogenous movement of many atoms that results in a change in the crystal structure. These movements are small, usually less than the interatomic distances, and the atomsneighbors of maintainan theiratom relativeremain relationshipsclose. The systematic movement of large numbers of atoms leadsled to some to refer to these as ''military'' transformations in contrast to ''civilian'' diffusion-based phase changes, initially by [[Frederick Charles Frank]] and [[John Wyrill Christian]].<ref>D.A.

The most commonly encountered transformation of this type is the [[Adolf Martens|martensitic]] transformation which, while being probably the most studied, is only one subset of non-diffusional transformations. The martensitic transformation in steel represents the most economically significant example of this category of phase transformations, but an increasing number of alternatives, such as [[shape memory alloy]]s, are becoming more important as well.

== Classification and definitions ==

When a structural change occurs by the coordinated movement of atoms (or groups of atoms) relative to their neighbors then the change is termed as ''displacive'' transformation. This covers a broad range of transformations and so further classifications have been developed.<ref [name="Cohen" 1979]./>

The first distinction can be drawn between transformations dominated by ''lattice-distortive strains'' and those where ''shuffles'' are of greater importance.
