Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method involves cooling a test specimen to itsnominally fully martensitic phase, deforming the specimen,and heating the specimen to its fully

8、austenitic phase. Duringheating, the motion of the specimen is measured and plottedversus the specimen temperature. For a two-stage transforma-tion, the Rs, Rf, As, and Af, as defined in Terminology F 2005,are determined. For a single-stage transformation, the Asand Afare determined.5. Significance

40、elected to minimize theeffect of strain on the transformation temperatures.X1.5 The heating rate is limited to minimize the thermalgradients in the bath. The heating rate may be controlledmanually or through the use of a temperature controller.X1.6 The thermal mass of the fixture inside the bath sho
