Abstract
Bending-tensile system has been proposed to analyze transformation plasticity behavior and determine transformation plasticity coefficient. In this study specimens are fabricated from SCM440 steel and heated to austenite temperature and hold temperature constant for several minutes, then naturally cooled to room temperature. During cooling process before transformation start, bending stress and tensile stress have been applied at the same time to the specimen. The maximum deflections due to transformation plasticity have been obtained experimentally and then transformation plasticity coefficient determined. The obtained transformation plastic deflections are much smaller than three-point bending system that under only bending stress. Different cases of bending stress and tensile stress have been applied and experiments repeated many times for the each case.
