“…Furthermore, the HER was also found to depend on several metallurgical factors such as material microstructure [1,12], non-metallic inclusions [13], heat treatment condition [14,15], alloy chemistry, [5] and relative strengths of the individual phases [4,15]. Since the stress state is nearly uniaxial when deformed using a conical punch [3,8,11], attempts have been made to correlate uniaxial tensile (UT) properties with HER [16,17]. It has been shown that yield strength (YS), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), uniform elongation (UE), etc., have a positive correlation with HER [17,18].…”
