| Abstract: | Some modern products operate under conditions of rapid loading at cryogenic temperatures. To evaluate the serviceability of structural materials under such conditions, it is important to know how their mechanical properties and the nature of fracture change. In the present work, we investigated the effect of the loading rate in the range 10–4–10–1 sec–1 on the mechanical properties of the martensitic-austenitic steels 03Kh12N10MT (VNS-25), 07Kh16N6 (SN-2A), and 08Kh14N8M (VNL-6) at 4.2–293 K.Deceased.Voronezh Polytechnic Institute.
