Abstract

The Lüders deformation behavior in a medium Mn transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steel is investigated at different temperatures ranging from 25 to 300 °C. It demonstrates that the Lüders band appears at all testing temperatures but with varied Lüders strains which do not change monotonically with temperature. The martensitic transformation is simultaneously observed within the Lüders band in varying degrees depending on the testing temperature. It is well verified that the martensitic transformation is not responsible for the formation of Lüders band, and a reasonable explanation is given for the non-monotonic variation of Lüders strain with increasing temperature.
