摘要

This study investigates the influence of strain rate on the tensile behavior and acoustic emission (AE) characteristics of s30408 austenitic stainless steel, a material critical for cryogenic and corrosive environments. Uniaxial tensile tests were conducted at strain rates of 4.8 × 10− 4, 9.5 × 10− 4, and 1.9 × 10− 3 s-1, with synchronized AE monitoring using a broadband transducer system. AE parameters, including amplitude, duration, ring-down counts, and energy, were analyzed to correlate microstructural damage mechanisms with deformation stages. Results demonstrated that increasing strain rates significantly elevated the occurrence of medium-high amplitude AE events (> 60 dB) and total AE activity, attributed to accelerated dislocation dynamics, microcrack propagation, and phase transformations. Notably, specimens tested at 1.9 × 10− 3 s-1 exhibited distinct continuous-type AE signals during necking, corresponding to dislocation avalanches and energy superposition due to suppressed annihilation mechanisms at high strain rates. A power-law relationship was established between AE energy and signal duration, with deviations observed at high strain rates.
