Due to strain-induced martensitic transformation (SIMT), the strength, ductility and toughness of TRIP steel are enhanced. The impact deformation behavior of TRIP steel is very important because it is investigated to apply it for the shock absorption member in automobile industries. However, its behavior is still unclear since it is quite difficult to capture the transformation behavior inside the materials. There are some opinions that the deformation characteristics are not mainly depending on the martensitic transformation due to heat generation by plastic work. Here, the impact compressive deformation behavior of TRIP steel is experimentally studied by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) method at room temperature. In order to catch SIMT behavior during impact deformation, volume resistivity is measured and a transient temperature is captured by using a quite thin thermocouple. Then, a finite element simulation with the constitutive model for TRIP steel is performed. The finite element equation can be derived from the rate form of principle of virtual work based on the implicit time integration scheme. Finally, the results between the computation and experiment are compared to confirm the validity of computational model.

TRIP steel shows excellent mechanical properties such as greatly high strength, ductility and toughness by means of the appropriate combination of the strain-induced martensitic transformation (SIMT) behavior and the deformation behavior of each phase at crystal scale. In the past, the effect of grain size in the austenite on the deformation behavior of TRIP steel is investigated by introducing the grain size into a generalized model for the kinetics of SIMT. In order to validate the size-dependent kinetics modelling, it is necessary to simulate the deformation and SIMT behavior of the polycrystalline for the different grain size at the crystal scale. This study focuses on an investigation of SIMT behavior in polycrystalline TRIP steel by finite element simulation. The constitutive formula for monocrystalline TRIP steel including transformation strain in each variant system derived on the basis of the continuum crystal plasticity theory is applied. For the polycrystalline model, Voronoi tessellation is employed. The deformation behavior with a patterning process of martensitic phase in two different numbers of grains with initial crystal orientations for describing the deformation-related length scale is simulated under plane strain condition with two planar slip systems by a cellular automata approach.
