What is the mechanism map?
• A composition- and/or temperature-dependent2-D diagram
I l di th di t d i t t l h ft• Including the predicted microstructural phases afterdeformation
• Including the approximated Stacking Fault Energy(SFE) values using the thermodynamics-basedmodels
• Flexibility for additions of further alloyingelements, variations of temperature, and changesof grain size!
Why do we need these maps?
• A new way for steel design particularly inhigh-Mn steels
• Better adjustment of chemical composition,grain size, and deformation temperature
• Probably an alternative for the TTT diagrams whenworking with the single-phase austenitic steels!
• Developing new alloy concepts• Developing new alloy concepts

How to Estimate the SFE?
• ab initio techniquese.g. the Density Functional Theory (DFT) to simulate theirregularities in the stacking of atomic layers
• Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)e.g. variations in the size of the dislocation nodes
• Inference from the experimental datae.g. observation of TRIP and TWIP mechanisms in practice
• Themodynamics-based modelse.g. subregular solution model

SFE increases as the grain size decreases below 5 µm
Higher disequilibrium concentration of carbon when quenching from the lower temperature or for a short period of soaking to get a smaller grain
Effect of Grain Size on SFE?
size, increases the SFE
Internal stresses which affect the dissociation of dislocations, are changing by the grain size
The final calculated SFE including the grain size can be called as the apparent SFE!

Grain Size and Temperature Dependency24
Grain size may affect the capacity for dislocation pile up in theneighbouring grains before the onset of twinning (activation phase)!Increasing temperature generally increases the required twinning stress.As seen here, temperature has a different effect when working at low SFE range!

Future Plans
Finding out new techniques to calculate the twins density
Checking the consistency of the room temperature SFE calculations with the TEM based techniques
Further EBSD observations after the interrupted tensile tests to look for the changes of the microstructure
Adding more influential parameters like strain rate to study their effects in conjunction with temperature (SFE variations) and grain size to define the deformation mechanism and twinnability!
Evaluation of the effects of the PLC bands initiation, movement, and
47
variations by changing the grain size and temperature on the mech. prop.
Looking for a possible scalar value to integrate the mentioned parameters for a rather consistent prediction of mechanical properties
