“…For the quantification of the austenite and the and ␣ martensites, the direct comparison method was used [16], which involves the integration of the most intense peaks of each phase characterized by the (1 1 1), (2 0 0), (2 2 0), and (3 1 1) planes of austenite, the (1 1 0), (2 0 0), (2 1 1), and (2 2 0) planes of ferrite, and the (1 0 0), (0 0 2), (1 0 1), and (1 0 2) planes of martensite. The integration of the intensities was done with support of a graphic software (Origin TM ), following the methodology described by Dafé et al [23].…”
