Abstract
Plane-strain compression testing on HSLA steel samples using single-pass and multi-pass hot-deformation schedules showed that heavy deformation of metastable austenite below Ae3, developed ultra-fine ferrite grains (<3 µm), increased the fraction of high-angle (>15º misorientation) boundaries (>70%), and encouraged the formation of beneficial g-fibre ((ND//<111>) components along with {332}<113> and {554}<225> texture components, minimising the intensity of harmful ‘cube’ texture.
