Abstract:Boltzmann-type sigmoidal equations to model the tensile strain hardening and flow stress behavior of a metastable AISI 301LN austenitic stainless steel subjected to prior cold deformation have been developed. This model can be used in the numerical simulation of the energy absorbed by structures fabricated using this steel during collision events. In addition, it can also be used to establish the maximum allowable prior compressive strain through cold rolling which will result in a steel capable of adequate en… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
