In-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies on effects of plastic and Eelastic loading on bcc phase transformations of a 3rd generation 1 GPa advanced high strength steel

In this paper, we describe the effects of mechanical loading on bcc-to-bcc phase transformations of an Advanced High Strength Steel during cooling. In-situ synchrotron diffraction was employed to measure time–temperature–load diffraction patterns. Calculations were made of the volume fractions of the phases, the transformation kinetics, and...
