During cold mill processing low carbon steels, we found that yield point elongation can be greatly reduced in two ways: the first is create partially recrystallized microstructure using low annealing temperature, and the second is trigger abnormal grain-growth in the full-recrystallized material to create a bimodal grain-size distribution. What are the mechanisms behind these two scenarios?
