Abstract
In a previous paper, the thermomechanical treatment concept for producing high strength stamped parts from a thermal-mechanically treated low carbon steel was described. In this paper, the microstructural changes occurring during both the processing and forming operations are detailed and the relation between properties and microstructure is discussed.
