Effect of Strain Rate on the Formation of Strain-Induced
The effect of strain rate on the stress–strain response and the austenite to strain-induced α′-martensite transformation of austenitic steel 304L was studied. Compression tests were carried out at room temperature in the strain rate range of 10−3 to 103 s−1 and the evolution of martensite was quantified using a ferritoscope. Higher …
