Abstract
Two steels with bainitic and martensitic microstructures have been investigated with respect to the changes occurring in their uniaxial tensile properties in the temperature regime where they display dynamic strain aging (DSA) behaviour. The variations in yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, ductility and strain rate sensitivity in the case of martensitic steel have been found to vary in an embrittling manner as compared with those observed in the case of the bainitic steel within the DSA temperature regime. An attempt has been made to provide an insight into the difference in manifestations of DSA on the uniaxial behaviour of the two steels.
