Suivi par diffraction des hétérogénéités de déformation dans un acier duplex

To validate mean- and full-field micromechanical models, we have performed elastic strain measurements using several diffraction techniques (neutrons,transmission and reflexion under synchrotron radiation, and laboratory X-ray) during which the specimen was tensile deformed in-situ. Application has been performed on a duplex steel (ferrite and austenite) as an example of two-phase high-strength polycrystals. The uncertainty and relevance of the different measurements will be discussed and compared with simulations based on an elasto-viscoplastic self-consistent model
