Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In this paper, the heat generated during deformation under the static testing of high-manganese TWIP steel with addition of niobium was determined. The research combined the interaction of heat generated during deformation, mechanical properties, hardness and microstructure. Temperature and strain were measured simultaneously using infrared (IR) thermography and digital image correlation (DIC) method. The average temperature measured at the necked region equals 42°C at the strain rate of 0.001 s<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> and exceeds 100°C at 0.5 s<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>. Therefore at large strains, a reduction in stress was observed. The course of the hardness change coincides very well with the strain changes, however, at the strain rate of 0.5 s<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> near to the necking area the hardness equals to 360 HV2, whereas at the lower strain rates it equals to 370 HV2. These changes are connected mainly with increase in temperature to &gt;100°C</jats:p>
