The knowledge of the dynamic characteristics of materials designed for marine structures is necessary for elucidating the behavior of materials on impact loading. At large strain rates the mechanism of plastic strain changes. The influence of nitrogen on the austenitic stainless steel properties was evaluated on the example of steel 00H21AN16G5M4Nb. Austenitic steels demonstrate low stacking fault energy values (SFE) due to the nitrogen content. More effective blocking of dislocations by nitrogen rather than carbon is significant in the processes of shaping the functional properties of austenitic stainless steels. The line graph presenting the dependence of stress on the temperature and strain rate allows graphical representation of change in the yield strength. On the basis of experimental studies, the mechanical threshold stress for steel 00H21AN16G5M4Nb has been determined. %8 2017-07-05
