TRIP effect in austenitic–martensitic VNS9-Sh steel at various strain rates
Abstract
The mechanical properties of austenitic–martensitic VNS9-Sh (23Kh15N5AM3-Sh) steel are studied at a static strain rate from 4.1 × 10–5 to 17 × 10–3 s–1 (0.05–20 mm/min). It is found that, as the strain rate increases, the ultimate tensile strength decreases and the physical yield strength remains unchanged (≈1400 MPa). As the strain rate increases, the yield plateau remains almost unchanged and the relative elongation decreases continuously. Because of high microplastic deformation, the conventional yield strength is lower than the physical yield strength over the entire strain rate range under study. The influence of the TRIP effect on the changes in the mechanical properties of VNS9-Sh steel at various strain rates is discussed.
