Martensite_Quantification: Micrographs and MATLAB Code for Cryogenic Steel Analysis

MATLAB code and micrographs for quantitative light optical microscopy analysis developed by Pilar Fernandez-Pison et al. (2021). The dataset supports research on the flow and fracture of austenitic stainless steels at cryogenic temperatures, specifically for AISI 304L tested at 4 K to a maximum strain of 16%. The work involved institutions in Spain (University Carlos III of Madrid) and Switzerland (CERN).

Use Cases

• Quantifying martensite phase content in steel micrographs based on the provided analysis code.
• Developing or benchmarking image analysis algorithms for metallurgical microstructures.
• Studying material behavior under cryogenic conditions based on the described experimental setup.
• Reproducing or extending the quantitative microscopy analysis from the referenced 2021 publication.

Strengths

• Includes the original MATLAB analysis code developed for the published 2021 study.
• Contains supporting micrograph files from a specific cryogenic test (AISI 304L at 4 K, 16% strain).
• Dataset provenance is clearly linked to a peer-reviewed publication and collaborating institutions (UC3M, CERN).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
