Effect of the pulse electric current on mechanical properties of an ultra-high strength steel (UHSS) is experimentally investigated. A single pulse of electric current with a short duration of 0.36 sec is applied to the specimen under tensile plastic loading. The experimental result showed that flow stress of the UHSS nearly instantly drops at moment of electric current, following strain hardening until necking of the specimen. Uniform elongation completely depends on the pulsing strain, while ultimate tensile strength slightly changes after electric current.

High deformability has been considered as a critical factor of ultra-high strength steel plates subjected to compressive, tensile, and bending deformation induced by large ground movements. In this paper, various dual phase microstructures consisting of soft ferrite and strong low-temperature transformation phases without deformation in the (austenite + ferrite) two-phase temperature region after controlled rolling were introduced and then the mechanical properties were discussed with emphasis on deformability such as yield ratio and uniform elongation. Ultra-high strength steel plates fabricated by a modified thermo-mechanical control process showed lower yield ratio of under 0.75 and higher uniform elongation of 5% as a minimum, as compared to commercial API X100 and X120 grade pipeline steels, without much sacrifice of Charpy impact properties because of an appropriate formation of soft ferrite and strong low-temperature transformation phases.
