Evolution of austenite static recrystallization and grain size during hot rolling of a V-microalloyed steel

Laboratory double-deformation isothermal tests and multipass continuous cooling hot torsion tests were used to study the static recrystallization of austenite under isothermal and anisothermal conditions as well as to simulate the hot rolling of a 0.13% V-microalloyed steel. Characterization of the...
