A type of tensile fracture topography encountered fairly often in certain temperature ranges with specimens from forgings, billets, rod, and bar of quenched and tempered steel, is the “star” or “rosette.” Having available several steels which had been shown to be capable of exhibiting the rosette, star, fracture, tensile testing was done to establish the temperature ranges for which this fracture configuration was applicable. Explanations of the fracture, and determinations of the fracture modes, were sought through experimentation involving metallography and the electron microscope, and by application of continuum mathematical plasticity-fracture theory.

In this study, the 38MnSiVS medium carbon non-quenched and tempered steel bar was investigated by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and quantitative metallography. The microstructures were mainly composed of ferrite and pearlite. The phase transition-microstructure prediction models were established to calculate ferrite volume fraction fα, ferrite grain size dα and pearlite interlamellar spacing So. The volume fraction of the second phase V (C, N) was calculated by thermodynamics. The morphology of the second phase V (C, N) was observed by TEM, and the distribution of particle size of the second phase was determined. And the mechanical properties were measured. Considering the microstructural parameters (fα,dα and So), the modified coefficient of solid solution elements, and the effect of precipitates, combining with some reference models, prediction model of mechanical properties including yield strength, tensile strength and impact toughness were finally established.
