In this framework, compression samples which were deformed above Tnr and then intercritically annealed were held isothermally for different durations at temperatures below bainite transformation start temperature. Microstructure of samples were characterized by optical and electron microscopy, XRD （X-ray diffraction） and M6ssbauer spectroscopy. The results indicated that due to low-silicon content of the present steel, the incomplete bainite reaction phenomena was not observed and, hence, the maximum carbon enrichment of residual austenite was achieved in the samples which held for short durations. It was also shown that the maximum carbon enrichment and volume fraction of residual austenite were achieved at intermediate bainite hold temperature of 450 ℃ as the result of competing phenomena, such as microstructural refinement, dislocation density, carbide precipitation and growth.展开更多

It was applied using the example of an Mg-stabilized zirconia reinforced TRIP-matrix-composite. The content of the ceramic phase was varied between 5% and 20%, whereas the particle size of the ceramic was selected to be 30 to 50 μm. The method is a further development of mixture rule for multiphase materials with more than two microstructure components. The prediction results were compared with the original method of mixture rule and with the IsoE-method. It is shown that the new method significantly improves the convergence compared to the standard method for mixture rule, even though it does not reach the accuracy of IsoE-method. Furthermore, there is an improvement of predicted convergence for large values of the total stress. Finally, a working map was designed for a quick graphical definition of the objective functions.展开更多
