Abstract

The conditions for reversal of martensite to austenite during large and rapid applied shear are discussed and evaluated experimentally for the shear zone neighboring a partially pierced hole. Although the large transformation strain of reverse martensite transformation could conceivably couple with the applied shear stress to provide a large energy aiding the reversal, such extensive coupling is not experimentally found to be important. Rather the important engineering quantities to consider are the chemical stability of the martensite, the strain heating of the austenite and diffusion of heat from the shear zone.
