(From the authors' summary.) An energy criterion is developed to calculate the stress-strain behavior of a ductile system involving martensitic transformation under the application of stress. The martensitic inclusions are taken to develop from the ductile austenitic matrix due to the reduction in the Gibbs free energy, which consists of the chemical free energy and the surface energy of the parent and product phases, and the mechanical potential energy of the nonlinear system. A micromechanical theory is established to determine the nonlinear potential energy and the change in Gibbs free energy of the two-phase system at a given stage of transformation. It is found that the stress- strain behavior of the metastable system is the outcome of two competing effects, one from the ductility due to the plastic deformation of the ductile matrix and the phase transformation strain of the martensitic inclusions, and the other from the stiffness due to the purely elastic response of the transformed martensites. The theory does not assume any a priori law for the evolving volume fraction of the martensite; it is calculated incrementally based on the change of Gibbs free energy between the current and the transformed state. The theory also does not assume any a priori flow rule for the transformation strains, which are calculated strictly from the lattice parameters of the parent and transformed phase.
