The changes in the sub-grain size （Ds）, probability of stacking fault formation （Psf） and microstrain in the material as cold rolling progressed were determined by using a modified version of the Williamson and Hall equation. A strong development of the crystallographic texture with increasing deformation was observed. Deformation-induced formation of a small fraction α＇-martensite was observed, indicating that the steel also exhibits γ→α＇-martensite transformation during cold rolling, which is discussed via the changes of the stacking-fault probability and the texture development during cold rolling.展开更多
