Theoretical and experimental study of carburisation and decarburisation of a meta-stable austenitic steel

Metastable austenitic stainless steels are known to undergo a partial transformation of austenite to martensite as a consequence of plastic deformation. In the case of cyclic loading, a certain level of plastic strain must be exceeded, and phase formation takes place after an incubation period, duri...
