Abstract

The thermal simulation experiments on bainitic transformation were conducted on Gleeble 3800. The microstructures of specimens were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The main purpose is to investigate the relationship between the dilatation of specimens and bainitic transformation under stress. Results show that the radial strain cannot represent the real amount of bainitic transformation under stress because the radial strain contains both shear and dilatational components of invariant plane strain. In this case, the volume strain, which eliminates the influence of the shear components, should be used to analyze the amount of bainitic transformation under stress. In addition, the radial strain should not be used for the investigation of the kinetics of bainitic transformation under stress. For bainitic transformation without stress, the radial strain of the specimen can represent the amount of bainite, and can be used for the analysis of the kinetics of bainitic transformation; so it is not necessary to measure the volume strain. The present study clarifies the relationship between dilatation and the bainitic transformation under stress, and provides a useful reference to the analysis of bainitic transformation under stress.
