| Abstract Scope |
The object of this proposed study is to compare the micro-structural response of various DP 600 products subjected to dynamic impact tests, typically encountered in a car crash. Since the response of steel is sensitive to its microstructure as controlled by the alloying elements, phase content, and processing; various DP600 products may respond differently to crashes. The micro-structure before and after dynamic impact deformation will be characterized with regards to grain size, morphology, and phase content among various vendors to evaluate efficiency in absorbing energy mechanisms during a crash simulated by drop tower testing. |
