Abstract
Multipass torsion tests were performed on an Nb-microalloyed steel at decreasing temperatures so as to analyze the effect of strain reversal – in the strain accumulation region – on the γ→α transformation kinetics. Strain reversal involved a significant delay in the start of the transformation as well as a microstructural transient compared to monotonic strain conditions. However, after several passes with no reversal performed within the inter-critical temperature region, both types of tests led to similar microstructures.
