Popis: Tension tests were performed on metastable austenitic Fe-Ni-C alloys to study the influence of martensite formed during straining on mechanical behavior. Although both stressassisted, plate martensite and fine, lathlike strain-induced martensite were formed, only stress-assisted martensite occurred in sufficient amounts to influence mechanical behavior. The formation of stress-assisted, plate martensite raised the flow stress and the strain-hardening rate, but only after 25 to 40 pct martensite had formed. A TRIP effect was obtained,i.e., ductility was enhanced by concurrent martensite formation, but this occurred over only a narrow temperature range because of the strong temperature dependence of the austenite-to-plate martensite reaction. This is in contrast to the behavior of high-Cr austenitic steels, which exhibit a TRIP effect over a wide temperature range because of the formation of large amounts of fine strain-induced martensite, whose formation is less temperature-sensitive than that of plate martensite.
