When a metal is strained plastically, the yield strength in the direction opposite the direction of strain is reduced. This phenomenon is called the Bauschinger effect. During an investigation of the Bauschinger effect in HSLA steels, an interesting interaction between the Bauschinger effect and strain aging was observed. Results show that interstitial-solute strain aging can be used in certain types of steel to reduce the magnitude of the loss in yield strength on strain reversal resulting from the transient portion of the Bauschinger effect.
