An extra low carbon martensitic stainless steel with 16% ultrafine grained metastable reverted austenite was subjected to uniaxial tensile testing and investigated in-situ energy-dispersive synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) electron backscatter (EBSD) reveal the complex interplay between stress, strain transformation. In-situ XRD demonstrated that, upon surpassing yield strength, fraction of ...

INTRODUCTION To improve the fracture resistance of nickel-titanium (NiTi) files, manufacturers have introduced new alloys and developed new manufacturing processes for the fabrication of NiTi files. This study aimed to examine the phase transformation behavior and microstructure of NiTi instruments from a novel controlled memory NiTi wire (CM wire). METHODS Instruments of EndoSequence (ES), P...

parameters in-situ during the transformation and to obtain SUPERELASTICITY is a deformation mechanism phase-specific information. However, neutrons penetrate observed in NiTi and other allotropic, ordered alloys where deeper than X-rays (several millimeters, compared to a few the high-temperature cubic phase (austenite), when subjected micrometers for X-rays from a conventional source). Thus, t...

The strength of mixed microstructures of bainite and martensite can peak at an intermediate volume fraction of martensite has been published by recently experimental studies. A quantitative interpretation of these observations is achieved by modelling the mechanical properties of mixed microstructures of bainite and martensite. The peak in the curve of the strength as a function of the volume f...
