The cyclic deformation and damage behaviors of the Fe-Mn and Fe-Mn-C TRIP/TWIP steels are comprehensively studied in a wide range of strain amplitude (from 0.3% to 8.0%). It is found that with increasing C content, the dislocation structures change from wavy slip to planar slip after cyclic deformation. In order to evaluate the low-cycle and extremely-low-cycle fatigue (LCF and ELCF) properties, a fatigue life prediction model, N-f= (W-a/W0)ss, with a hysteresis energy-based criterion is used and developed. The model reveals that the LCF and ELCF damage mechanisms can be controlled by the material's damage capacity (the intrinsic fatigue toughness W-o) and its ability of transforming mechanical work into effective damage (the damage transition exponent ss). From a macroscopic point of view, Wo is related to the match of strength and ductility (approximately the static toughness U), and ss mainly has a negative correlation with the cyclic strain hardening exponent n'. On the micro-scale level, W-o represents the defect-accommodated ability of the materials, and ss is determined by the uniformity and reversibility of plastic deformation. For the current Fe Mn(-C) TRIP/TWIP steels with increasing C content, the cooperation between an increasing damage capacity and an incremental damage accumulation rate leads to a higher ELCF property and a lower LCF property.
