Abstract
In this study, anisotropic ductility and associated damage mechanisms of a grade X100 line pipe steel previously studied at the macroscopic scale were investigated using in situ synchrotron radiation computed tomography of notched round bars. Line pipe materials have anisotropic mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, ductility and toughness. Specimens were tested for loading along both rolling (L) and transverse (T) directions. The in situ data collected allowed quantifying both specimen deformation (evolution of the cross section) and microscopic damage parameters such as porosity, void shape and void orientation. Nucleation at small particles (\({\hbox {CaS/TiO}}_2\)) aligned along the L direction was observed during plastic deformation. It was shown that only very few anisotropic particle clusters are present in the material. However, these clusters led to substantial early void growth for loading normal to the rolling direction, thereby explaining the toughness anisotropy in this material. Significant void growth was observed at the beginning of load decrease for a relatively limited diameter reduction (about 10%). Coalescence of voids within clusters along L direction (Necklace) clearly explained anisotropic rupture.

Notes
The stock plate is subjected to cold working by a C-press, a U-press, an O-press, a seam welding and an expander in that order (see [16]).
