Strain aging and the Bauschinger effect in low carbon ferrite-pearlite and ferrite-bainite pipe steel are studied. Steel with ferrite-bainite structure is more susceptible to strain aging and the Bauschinger effect. After alternating loading, strain aging develops, with increase in the yield point. After alternating load ing of already aged steel, the Bauschinger effect appears; it is comparable with the effect in unaged steel.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
