Microscopic techniques of different resolution (LM, SEM, TEM) and X-Ray diffraction methods were applied. Static tensile tests were performed to characterize mechanical properties of the investigated steels and to determine the tendency of retained austenite to strain-induced martensitic transformation. Obtained results allowed to characterize the microstructural aspects of strain-induced martensitic transformation and its effect on the mechanical properties. It was found that the mechanical stability of retained austenite depends significantly on the manganese content. An increase in manganese content from 3.3% to 4.7% has a significant impact on the microstructure, stability of γ phase and mechanical properties of the investigated steels. The initial amount of retained austenite was higher for the 3Mn-1.5Al steel in comparison to 5Mn-1.5%Al steel—17% and 11%, respectively. The mechanical stability of retained austenite is significantly affected by the morphology of this phase.

However, the poor weldability limits its industrial application. This paper shows the results of six low-alloy TRIP steels with different chemical composition which were studied in order to correlate retained austenite (RA) and non-metallic inclusions (NMI) with their resistance spot welded zones to their joints’ final mechanical properties. RA volume fractions were quantified by X-ray microdiffraction (µSXRD) while the magnetic saturation technique was used to quantify NMI contents. Microstructural characterization and NMI of the base metals and spot welds were assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Abstract: Stress–strain behavior of a low carbon low alloy multiphase steel with ferrite, tempered bainite, and retained austenite was studied at different cryogenic temperatures. Results indicated that both strength and ductility were enhanced with decreasing tensile testing temperature. The enhancement of both strength and ductility was attributed to the decreased mechanical stability of retained austenite with decreasing temperature, resulting in sufficient transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect for increasing work hardening rate.

  • The Causes of “Shear Fracture” of Dual-Phase Steels
    The Causes of “Shear Fracture” of Dual-Phase Steels Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ji-Hyun Sung, M.S. Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Robert H. Wagoner, Advisor June Key Lee Sudarsanam Suresh Babu Rebecca B. Dupaix ⓒ Copyright by Ji-Hyun Sung 2010 ABSTRACT Dual Phase (DP) steels are a class of advanced high strength steel (AHSS) in increasing use for sheet formed automotive parts. In spite of attractive combinations of high strength, high ductility, and low cost, the widespread adoption of DP steels has been limited because practical die tryouts exhibit forming failures far earlier than predicted by standard industrial methods. These failures, often referred to as “shear fractures,” occur in regions of high curvature and with little apparent necking, in contrast to “normal” or tensile fractures. Conventional wisdom attributes shear fractures to a postulated damage mechanism related to the special microstructure of DP steels. In order to reproduce, characterize, and analyze such fractures in a laboratory setting and to understand their origin of the inability to predict them, a novel draw-bend formability (DBF) test was devised based on displacement control. DP steels from several suppliers with tensile strengths ranging from 590 to 980 MPa were tested over a range of rates and bend ratios (R/t, inner bend radius / sheet thickness). The new DBF test reliably reproduced three kinds of fractures identified as Type I, II, and III, corresponding to tensile fracture, transitional fracture, and shear fracture, respectively.

These two authors contributed equally to this work. y Received: 19 October 2019; Accepted: 26 November 2019; Published: 28 November 2019 Abstract: High strength/high elongation continues to be the primary challenge and focus for medium-Mn steels. It is elucidated herein via critical experimental analysis that the cumulative contribution of transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) and microstructural constituents governs high strength/high elongation in 0.2C–3Al–(6–8.5)Mn–Fe steels. This was enabled by an effective heat treatment involving a combination of intercritical hardening and tempering to obtain high strength/high ductility. An excellent combination of high ultimate tensile strength of 935–1112 MPa and total elongation of 35–40% was obtained when the steels were subjected to intercritical hardening in the temperature range of 700–750 ◦C and low tempering at 200 ◦C.

  • High Mn TWIP Steels for Automotive Applications
    6 High Mn TWIP Steels for Automotive Applications B. C. De Cooman1, Kwang-geun Chin2 and Jinkyung Kim1 1Graduate Institute of Ferrous Technology Pohang University of Science and Technology, Pohang 2POSCO Technical Research Laboratories, Gwangyang South Korea 1. Introduction Modern car design puts an increasing emphasis on the notion that a material used in building the body-in-white (BIW) should be selected on the basis of how well it helps achieving specific engineering targets such as low vehicle weight, high passive safety, stability, stiffness, comfort, acoustics, corrosion, and recycling. Steel is at present still the material of choice for car bodies, with 99% of the passenger cars having a steel body, and 60- 70% of the car weight consisting of steel or steel-based parts. The automotive industry is however continuously making excursions in the area of light materials applications. At present, most car makers are routinely testing multi-materials concepts, which are not limited to the obvious use of light materials for closures, e.g. the use of Al for the front lid or thermosetting resins for trunk lids. The steel industry has made a sustained effort to innovate and create advanced steels and original steel-based solutions and methods in close collaboration with the manufacturers by an early involvement in automotive projects, but also by involving automakers in their own developments. Carmakers have increasingly built passenger cars with body designs which emphasize passenger safety in the event of a collision, and most passenger cars currently achieve high ratings in standardized crash simulations such as the EURO NCAP or the North American NHST tests.
