The improvement of the strength of the composites are mainly attributed to thermal mismatch strengthening. The first increase in ductility is mainly due to the capture and pin of the dislocation by intragranular intermetallic phases, which makes the grains have stronger dislocation accumulation and storage capacity.

Assessable characteristics are e.g. phase fractions, lattice strains, and crystallographic texture. For the latter forward modelling of transmission spectra from known orientation distribution functions (ODFs) has been demonstrated for various materials. However, solving the inverse problem—retrieving crystallographic texture from transmission spectra—presents a more complex challenge. In recent years, the authors have developed two theoretical approaches to model the relationship between transmission spectra and texture, either by decomposing the ODF into individual orientation fractions or by expanding it into a Fourier series. Both approaches have shown excellent predictive capability for materials with different crystal symmetries, including hexagonal, FCC, and BCC structures. Here we present the comparison between the proposed models, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of the direct method based on different approaches for the analysis of wavelength-resolved neutron transmission experiments of textured materials.

The study on microstructure evolution, quasi-static tensile properties, dynamic Charpy impact toughness and fracture behavior of the experimental steels were deeply investigated. The results manifests that the TPS technology effectively refine the grain size of austenite grain and optimizes the distribution of the driving force behind phase transitions, thereby facilitating the development of a ferrite-bainite mixed microstructure (83.4 ± 6 % GB + 15.2 ± 3 % PF) in TPS steel. In contrast to CPS steel, the newly developed TPS steel significantly enhances low-temperature impact toughness while maintaining high strength, namely, a yield strength of 532 ± 7 MPa, a total elongation of 21.3 %, and the Charpy impact energy of 137 J at −60 °C. The refined grains and synergistic deformation of mixed microstructure can contribute to the excellent ductility without compromising strength in TPS steel. The excellent impact toughness of TPS steel is induced by multi-factor coupling. Finer initial effective grain size, higher proportion of high angle grain boundarie, higher intensity of the desired texture {332} 〈113〉, and significant hetero-deformation induced stress are all factors affecting toughness. Additionally, benefitted to the “weak interface” between ferrite and bainite, the delamination toughening is fully activated (extrinsic toughening), which significantly improves the overall fracture resistance.
