    TRIP steels are a type of advanced high-strength steel that contain retained austenite phases for improved strength and ductility. They have a higher carbon content than other advanced high-strength steels and require an isothermal hold during processing to form bainite. The carbon and other alloying elements stabilize the retained austenite phase. Changing the carbon content controls the strain level at which the austenite transforms to martensite. TWIP steels have gained interest for their combination of high strength and ductility enabled by twinning-induced plasticity. They have a face-centered cubic structure with high manganese content and additions of carbon, silicon, or aluminum. Their low

     TRIP Steels (Transformation Induced Plasticity Steel) are part of the Advanced High-

    Strength Steel (AHSS) family.

    The microstructure of TRIP steels consists of at least five-volume percent of retained


    austenite, which is embedded in a primary ferrite matrix. The microstructure also contains hard
    phases like bainite and martensite in varying amounts.

    TRIP steels are notable due to the higher carbon content than other members of the
    AHSS family, such as dual phase steels. They typically require the use of an isothermal hold at
    an intermediate temperature, which produces some bainite. Silicon and aluminum are added in
    order to both accelerate the ferrite and bainite formation process, as well as avoiding carbide
    buildup in the bainite region of the material.

    Greater silicon, aluminum, and carbon content of TRIP steels result in large fractions of
    retained austenite in the material’s final microstructure. The increased carbon content also
    stabilizes the retained austenite phase below the usual ambient temperature.

    Changing the carbon content helps to control the strain level at which the austenite begins
    to transform into martensite. At low carbon levels, the transformation of the retained austenite
    will begin almost immediately upon deformation, which will then improve the formability and
    work hardening rate during the stamping process.
    At higher carbon content, the transformation will occur only at strain levels beyond those
    utilized during the forming processing. The retained austenite remains after the final stage of the
    forming process at these higher carbon levels – the transformation into martensite will occur only
    during subsequent deformation; in the case of automobiles, an example would be a crash event.

     TWIP steels, which stands for twinning-induced plasticity steels, have received very high
    interest in recent years due to their excellent mechanical properties at room temperature
    combining high strength (ultimate tensile strength of up to 1 GPa ) and ductility
    (elongation to fracture up to 100 %) based on a high work-hardening capacity.
    TWIP steels are austenitic steels, i.e. face-centered cubic (fcc) metallic alloys, with high
    content in Mn (above 20% in weight %) and small additions of elements such C (<1
    wt.%), Si (<3 wt.%), or Al (<3 wt.%). The steels have low stacking fault energy (between
    20 and 40 mJ/m2) at room temperature. The high strain-hardening of TWIP steels is
    commonly attributed to the reduction of the dislocation mean free path with the
    increasing fraction of deformation twins as these are considered to be strong obstacles to
    dislocation glide.
