Austenite to bainite phase transformation in the heat-affected zone of a high strength low alloy steel

Abstract

The austenite to bainite phase transformation was investigated in a low alloy structural steel after simulated welding heat treatment, by means of light microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Upper bainite packets result from the growth of groups of laths having close crystallographic orientations but highly misoriented habit planes. Self-accommodation of the transformation eigenstrain was evaluated for various bainite configurations using a micromechanical model. The observed pairs of variants seem to help limiting plastic strain in the austenite phase, thus enhancing growth of the bainite phase during cooling.
