AbstractThe Fe-Mn-Al steels claim a low density, and some fall into the category of transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steel. In Fe-Mn-Al TRIP steel development, phase transformations play an important role. Herein, the martensitic transformation of an Fe-16.7 Mn-3.4 Al ternary alloy (wt pct) was experimentally discovered, whose equilibrium phases are a single phase of austenite at 1373 K and dual phases of ferrite and austenite at low temperature. Ferritic lath martensite forms in the prior austenite grains after cooling from 1373 K under various cooling rates via quenching, air cooling, and furnace cooling. The formation mechanism of the ferritic lath martensite is different from that of traditional ferritic lath martensite in steel and quite similar to that in maraging steel. A slight strain energy coupled with a small temperature gradient can lead to the formation of ferritic lath martensite in the Fe-Mn-Al alloy after cooling from high temperature. It is also found that micro-twins exist in the ferritic lath martensite.

Elastic Plastic Materials

During the martensitic transformation in elastic-plastic materials, the local transformation strain as well as the plastic flow inside austenite are strongly related with the crystallographic orientation of the austenitic lattice. Two mechanisms involved in these materials, i.e., plasticity by dislocation motion and martensitic phase formation are coupled through kinematical constraints so that the lattice spin of the austenitic grains is different from the one due to classical slip. In this work, the lattice spin ω˙eA of the austenitic grains is related with the slip rate on the slip systems of the two phases, γ˙A and γ˙M, the evolution of the martensite volume fraction f˙ and the overall rotation rate Ω˙ of the grains. This new relation is integrated in a micromechanical model developed for unstable austenite in order to predict the evolution of the austenite texture during TRansformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP). Results for the evolution of the lattice orientation during martensitic transformation are compared with experimental data obtained by X-ray diffraction on a 304 AISI steel.

Compression Tests

The hot working behavior of Mg-3Sn-2Ca alloy has been investigated in the temperature range 300–500 oC and strain rate range 0.0003–10 s-1, with a view to evaluate the mechanisms and optimum parameters of hot working. For this purpose, a processing map has been developed on the basis of the flow stress data obtained from compression tests. The stress-strain curves exhibited steady state behavior at strain rates lower than 0.01 s-1 and at temperatures higher than 350 oC and flow softening occurred at higher strain rates. The processing map exhibited two dynamic recrystallization domains in the temperature and strain rate ranges: (1) 300–420 oC and 0.0003–0.003 s-1, and (2) 420–500 oC and 0.003–1.0 s-1, the latter one being useful for commercial hot working. Kinetic analysis yielded apparent activation energy values of 161 and 175 kJ/mole in domains (1) and (2) respectively. These values are higher than that for self-diffusion in magnesium suggesting that the large volume fraction of intermetallic particles CaMgSn present in the matrix generates considerable back stress. The processing map reveals a wide regime of flow instability which gets reduced with increase in temperature or decrease in strain rate.

Kinetics of deformation induced martensitic transformation in metastable austenitic AISI 301 steel was characterized by several techniques including classical light metallography, X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction and electron back scattered diffraction. In order to characterize the martensitic transformation, several specimens were tensile pre-deformed to 5%, 10% and 20% of plastic deformation and compared with non-deformed state. During straining, the volume fraction of α’-martensite rapidly prevails over the volume fraction of original austenite and reach the value circa 70%.

An in-situ laboratory based X-ray diffraction technique has been developed to directly measure lattice strain and stress evolution associated with {10.2} < 10.1 > twin nucleation and growth in rolled and extruded Mg alloys during tensile loading. A transmission diffraction geometry was utilised to measure peak position and intensity for the (10.0), (00.2) and (10.1) lattice planes while the sample was loaded in uni-axial tension. Lattice re-orientation arising from deformation twinning is utilizedto estimate the twin volume fraction by measuring the increase in the (10.0) peak intensity along with a simultaneous decrease in the (00.2) peak intensity as a function of applied load. From observation of the lattice strain plotted against applied stress for different orientations it was found that the (10.1) orientation displayed the anticipated linear behaviour within the whole stress range. Yielding in the (10.2) and (10.3) orientations was identified at around 75 and 90 MPa respectively, indicating theonset of basal slip. Twin nucleation was observed at at a stress of approximately 110 MPa.
