Description

SME of Fe-17%Mn-X alloy decreased with increasing Ni and Cr contents. This is because the occurrence of stress-induced martensite transformation of γ to ε is difficult due to the increase in stability of retained austenite with increasing Ni and Cr contents. SME of Fe-17%Mn-X alloy increased with increasing the number of thermal cycles. The reason is that the prior bending deformation for SME is associated with coalescence of the pre-existing ε plates due to their rearrangement, thereby the more the ε content, the greater the SME.
