Abstract: The paper analyzes the regularities of structure formation in low-alloyed carbon steels. During the investigation of ferritic-pearlitic steel samples it has been found that the structure formation in pearlite essentially lags behind structural changes in ferrite grains, and this delay is observed at all stages of deformation. An important feature of structure formation in pearlite is crack nucleation in cementite, accompanied by dislocation pile-up in the ferrite interlayers of pearlite. Using the method of dislocation dynamics, the relationshi...
