Abstract: | This study aimed at investigating effects of strain rate and test temperature on deformation and fracture behavior of three
API X70 and X80 linepipe steels fabricated by varying alloying elements and hot-rolling conditions. Quasi-static and dynamic
torsional tests were conducted on these steels having different grain sizes and volume fractions of acicular ferrite and polygonal
ferrite, using a torsional Kolsky bar, and then the test data were compared via microstructures, tensile properties, and adiabatic shear band formation. The dynamic torsional test results indicated that
the steels rolled in the single-phase region had the higher maximum shear stress than the steel rolled in the two-phase region,
because their microstructures were composed mainly of acicular ferrites. Particularly in the API X80 steel rolled in the single-phase
region, increased dynamic torsional properties could be explained by the decrease in the overall effective grain size due
to the presence of acicular ferrite having smaller effective grain size. The possibility of the adiabatic shear band formation
at low temperatures was also analyzed by the energy required for void initiation and difference in effective grain size. |
