The effects of grain refinement on the quasi-static compressive behavior of AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel (ASS) were studied. The effect of strain on the final microstructure after compressive deformation was also investigated. The compression tests on steel specimens were conducted at a strain rate of 4.2 x 10(-3) s(-1). Ultrafine-grained (UFG) specimen with the grain size of 0.24 mu m exhibits an excellent combination of high yield strength (similar to 1 GPa) and good strain hardenability. Meanwhile, the coarse-grained (CG) specimen with the grain size of 37 pm exhibits yield strength of similar to 0.2 GPa. At 0.53 true strain, UFG and CG specimens exhibit compressive strengths of 5.95 and 4.80 GPa, respectively. The Hall-Petch relation constants, sigma(0), and K, for the AISI 321 ASS were estimated to be 128 MPa and 478 MPa mu m(-0.5), respectively. The strain hardening behavior of both UFG and CG specimens occur in three distinctive stages. CG specimen exhibits higher strain hardening rate than the UFG specimen up to a critical true strain of 0.4, above which strain hardening rate in UFG becomes greater. X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) techniques were used for microstructural analyses to understand the underlying mechanisms behind the strain hardening behavior. Texture evolution during deformation, orientation relationship between phases and the sequence of martensitic phase transformation were also studied and are discussed in this paper. Visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) modeling was employed to decipher the role of deformation mechanisms in macroscopic stress-strain response and also in texture evolution during uniaxial compression loading.
