Hot torsion stress-relaxation tests can be used to detect P sub s values for austenite of niobium microalloyed steels. Measurement of P sub f times seem to be more difficult to obtain due to strain heterogeneity along the specimen radius inherent to the testing method. A PTT curve was obtained for a...
