Abstract
The mechanical properties of metastable austenitic steel corresponding to the AISI301 were characterized by means of tensile testing and cupping tests. High sensitivity to the strain rate was observed. The fracture mechanism in tensile specimens changed from the combination of cleavage and ductile dimpled rupture at lower strain rates to entire ductile dimpled rupture at higher strain rates. Fracture mechanisms were very different in deep drawn cups. After deep drawing tests, delayed cracking occurred. Main fractographic feature observed in cracked deep drawn cups was the intergranular decohesion.
The mechanical behavior was described by a two-phase model incorporating the martensitic transformation. Identification of parameters was carried out on complex loading paths (tensile test, shear test, cyclic loadingunloading).
