Abstract
Based on the assumption that local principal stress remains the same everywhere within a ferrite grain, a critical value of grain size can be determined for a fixed TiN particle
size. When the grain size is smaller than the critical size, grain boundary is expected to resist the propagation of a micro-crack that is initiated from a TiN particle. Using this concept, an attempt has been made to predict the local cleavage fracture stress and 27J impact transition
temperature (ITT) of different Ti-microalloyed steels, which were subjected to (instrumented) Charpy impact testing.
