Summary The low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour of several commercially-produced multiphase steels was studied; including dual-phase (DP) and transformation induced plasticity (TRIP). In addition, a novel TRIP980 hybrid microstructure was examined that consisted of coarse ferrite grains along with low temperature bainite regions interspersed with retained austenite. Fully reversed strain controlled fatigue tests were conducted on the different steels to determine the cyclic stress response and strain to failure. The effects of the cyclic deformation on the microstructures were analysed using electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results showed that the initial cyclic hardening behaviour and low cyclic softening ratio observed in the TRIP steels was not necessarily due to austenite to martensite transformation. Differences between the austenite transformation behaviour of the conventional and novel hybrid TRIP microstructures was related to the different surrounding phases and the size of the retained austenite.
