Research Abstract |
TRIP-aided dual-phase steels (TDP steels) have been developed to improve safety and fuel efficiency by reducing vehicle weight. The purpose of the present investigation is to improve stretch-formability and stretch-flange-ability and to examine fatigue strength of TDP steels. The stretch-formability and stretch-flangeability of TDP steels were improved by moderate temperature forming at 20゚C to 200゚C. The lower Ms temperature of the retained austenite, the greater these formability and the lower the optimum forming temperature. Thermo-mechanical process in alpha+gamma region gave a significant amount of retained austenite and fine microstructure, but increased the retained austenite Ms temperature, particularly for low manganese and low sili-con steels. Great fatigue hardening appeared for TDP steels owing to strain induced transformation of the retained austenite and internal stress resulting from a difference of strength between matrix and second phase. The fatigue hardening decreased with increasing testing temperature. Higher fatigue limit compared to that of a conventional dual-phase steel was obtained at 100 to 200゚C. The reason is under investigation.
