Metastable austenitic CrNi steels undergo phase transformation when loaded or deformed plastically. In the current work a macroscopic and phenomenological constitutive model is presented to strain induced of austenite martensite. The approach based on previous works Olsen Cohen [1] & Stringfellow et al. [2]. kinetics modelled assumption that intersections shear bands in phase, act as potential ...

This paper presents the results of the continued development of creep-resistant, alumina-forming austenitic (AFA) stainless steel alloys, which exhibit a unique combination of excellent oxidation resistance via protective alumina (Al2O3) scale formation and high-temperature creep strength through the formation of stable nano-scale MC carbides and intermetallic precipitates. Efforts in fiscal ye...

Abstract--In this investigation, the fracture surfaces of SS 304 and SS 316 austenitic steels were analysed using the X-ray fractography technique. In both cases, a decrease in the austenite content was observed at the fracture surface as a result of deformation induced martensite, indicating a linear relation with Km~ within the stable crack growth region. The presence of this martensite was f...

A method based on the kinetics of crystal growth has been developed and applied to the computation of three-dimensional microstrucuture in austenite-matensite steels. The detailed crystallography of the transformation is used to model a realistic martensitic microstrucuture during the transformation without an external system of stresses. The interaction energy based on the plastic work model i...

The creep rupture life and rupture strength of austenitic stainless steels have been expressed as functions of chemical composition, test conditions, stabilisation ratio, and solution treatment temperature . The method involved a neural network analysis of a vast and general database assembled from published data. The outputs of the model have been assessed against known metallurgical trends an...

In Ultrasonic Inspection, the first and foremost step to find the defects in welding materials used in industrial applications is Noise Reduction. It is used to improve the detect ability of the weld defects. It plays a vital role in Flaw Detection and Characterization of materials such as Austenitic Stainless Steels etc. This study gives a review of various noise reduction schemes or technique...
