An experiment is presented which succeeds for the first time in stimulating the formation of coarse plates of bainite by the coalescence of identically oriented individual platelets. Transformation under the influence of a tensile stress dramatically promotes the formation of the coalesced bainite by increasing the probability of growing parallel platelets in close proximity. Whereas the coarse plates are detrimental to toughness, the result serves to validate the mechanism of coalescence, which has been discussed extensively in the literature.

Austenite grain structure has been studied over a wide range of soaking temperatures (950-1250℃) in a high strength low alloy steel containing Nb, Ti and V for different starting conditions, namely as cast, hot rolled and thermomechanical controlled rolled. Mixed (or bimodal) austenite grain structures were developed as a result of abnormal grain growth at different soaking temperatures in as cast slab (~1200℃) and in rolled plates (~1000℃), which has hardly been reported earlier. Higher fraction of finer precipitates, such as NbC and VC (<200 nm in size), were present in the rolled plate as compared to as cast slab, where the precipitates were coarser and complex in nature. Rapid dissolution of fine VC precipitates was primarily responsible for the observed abnormal grain growth in rolled plates at lower soaking temperature (~1000℃). Coarse precipitates of complex nature, such as (Nb,Ti,V)(C,N) and (Nb,Ti)(C,N), remained stable up to ~1150℃ and restricted the formation of abnormal grain growth in as cast steel.
