Summary on Grant Application Form
Experimental hot rolling of stainless steel followed by annealing to produce partial and full recrystallisation will be employed, with sophisticated quantitative metallographic study, to elucidate the effects of (1) reversal of the rolling direction and (2) change in orientation of deformation on the kinetics of static recrystallisation. This information will provide input for physically based modelling of microstructural evolution during industrial rolling.
