The strain-hardening behavior of metal during the uniaxial tension can be treated as the competing result of generation and annihilation of statistically stored dislocations (SSDs). Geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) are generated to accommodate a lattice mismatch and maintain deformation compatibility in dual-phase (DP) steels because of the heterogeneous deformation of the microstructure. In this study, a dislocation-based strain-hardening model that encompasses GNDs was developed to describe the mechanical properties of dual-phase steel. The GNDs were obtained based on a cell model of uniaxial deformation and the SSDs were calculated using a dynamic recovery model. The strain of each phase is a nonlinear function of the overall material strain obtained by the point-interpolation method (PIM). The proposed strain-hardening model was verified by using commercially produced DP600 steel. The calculated results obtained with GNDs are able to predict more precisely the experimental data than that without. The effects of martensite volume fraction and grain size on the strain-hardening behaviors of individual phases and material were studied.

Abstract The effect of the morphology and the martensite volume fraction on the microhardness, the tensile, the friction and the wear behavior of API X52 dual phase (DP) steel has been investigated. Three different heat treatments were used to develop dual phase steel with different morphologies and with different amounts of martensite: Intermediate Quenching Treatment/Water (IQ); Step Quenching Treatment (SQ) and direct quenching (DQ). Tribological tests are conducted on DP steels using a ball-on-disc configuration under normal load of 5 N and at a sliding speed of 4 cm/s were used to study the friction and wear behavior of treated samples. Results show that the ferrite–martensite morphology has a great influence on the mechanical properties of dual phase steel. The steel subjected to (IQ) treatment attain superior mechanical properties compared to the SQ and the DQ treatments. On the other hand, it is also found that the friction coefficient and the wear rate (volume loss) decrease when the hardness and the martensite volume fraction increase. The steel with fine fibrous martensite provide good wear resistance.

In this study, a random field (RF) model with a Gaussian kernel was applied to generate an artificial microstructure of dual phase (DP) steels. Micrographs obtained from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were analyzed using image processing software to extract the grain size and the volume fraction of each phase. Based on watershed (Ws) segmentation and quantitative analysis, the real and artificial microstructures were compared by analyzing grain features related the solidity, grain size and aspect ratio (the proportional relationship between its width and its height). Consequently, this approach allows to simulate the overall stress-strain behavior of the analyzed microstructures. As a result, it was shown that the strain localization starts to develop at the ferrite/martensite interface and that the RF model could replicate the micromechanical behavior of DP steels.
