An empirical equation was developed for the prediction of the critical strain for the onset of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) in microalloyed Nb-containing steels. Single-rolling pass isothermal compression tests were carried out in a Gleeble 1500TM thermomechanical processing simulator at 1000, 1050, 1100 and 1150 oC and strain rates of 0.5, 1 and 3s-1. The strain was 0.85. The Nb content was systematically varied between 0.024 and 0.10 mass %Nb. No further effect of addition of Nb on the critical strain was observed above 0.068%. The double-hit isothermal compression tests were carried out to investigate the influence of retained strain on the critical strain for DRX under the same conditions spelt out above but in tests in which the pre-strain was kept below the critical strain i.e. 0.142, and the amount of retained strain was varied by increasing the inter-pass time from 0.5 s to 8 s. As expected, the introduction of a pre-strain decreased the critical strain for the initiation of DRX. The data obtained from the experimental tests were used to develop an empirical model for the prediction of the critical strain for the onset of DRX taking into account the Nb content and the retained strain. A good correlation was obtained between the predicted and the experimental results. mi2025 Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering MSc Unrestricted SDG-04: Quality education SDG-07: Affordable and clean energy SDG-12: Responsible consumption and production 2019-08-12T11:18:48Z 2019-08-12T11:18:48Z 19/04/11 2018 Dissertation Mulala, MC 2018, Influence of a pre-deformation on the critical strain for the onset of dynamic recrystallization of Ti-Nb microalloyed steels, MSc Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/71012> A2019 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/71012 en © 2019 University of Pretoria.
