Effect of hardness of martensite and ferrite on void formation in dual phase steel

TLDR
In this article, the influence of the hardness of martensite and ferrite phases in dual phase steel on void formation has been investigated by in situ tensile loading in a scanning electron microscope.
Abstract
The influence of the hardness of martensite and ferrite phases in dual phase steel on void formation has been investigated by in situ tensile loading in a scanning electron microscope. Microstructural observations have shown that most voids form in martensite by evolving four steps: plastic deformation of martensite, crack initiation at the martensite/ferrite interface, crack propagation leading to fracture of martensite particles and void formation by separation of particle fragments. It has been identified that the hardness effect is associated with the following aspects: strain partitioning between martensite and ferrite, strain localisation and critical strain required for void formation. Reducing the hardness difference between martensite and ferrite phases by tempering has been shown to be an effective approach to retard the void formation in martensite and thereby is expected to improve the formability.

EBSD study of micromechanisms involved in high deformation ability of DP steels

TL;DR: In this paper, microtexture analysis was performed by using an FE-SEM equipped with an EBSD detector and the data were analyzed to quantify orientation gradients within the microstructure of the deformed specimens in terms of Image Quality, Inverse Pole Figure and Taylor Factor map.

TL;DR: The geometrically necessary dislocations as discussed by the authors were introduced to distinguish them from the statistically storages in pure crystals during straining and are responsible for the normal 3-stage hardening.

Observations on the fracture of cementite particles in a spheroidized 1.05% c steel deformed at room temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the initiation of fracture in the microstructure at room temperature was observed in tension, compression and torsion, and cracks formed in the carbide particles in a direction normal to the tensile strain imposed upon the particles by the deforming matrix.
