On the strain rate sensitivity of a TRIP assisted high entropy alloy

摘要

In the present work, the strain rate sensitivity is investigated in a novel high entropy alloy with transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect. Herein, it is aimed to reflect the effect of phase constitution on the mechanical behavior under different strain rates. It is shown that TRIP mechanism is operational in the annealed micro-structures at all examined rates. It is also demonstrated that strength and strain hardening rate levels show dependency to strain rate with varying trends based on the microstructural condition.
