Austenitic Stainless Steel

We need some hep again. I say WE because are four students working together.
This time is about Metallographic Characterization of Austenitic Stainless Steel. A part of the problem is the absence of literature.
Best regards and thank you again.

Rafael,
There is no absence of metallographic literature on austenitic SS's. The available literature could fill the parking garage of the Sears tower. But you most likely willnot find it free. ASM, IIW, AWS Journal Research supplemnts, WRC, Abington Publishing, TWI, Woohead Publishing, and many others have volumes upon volumes of not only metallographic imaging of austenitics but how to achieve those images and what they mean.

Well, I live in Venezuela. I'm not going to tell that technical literature has become hard to find. We use more Internet than other tools.

Rafael,
All of these sources can be contacted either by telephone, mail, or email. Abington and Woodhead are in England, and I deal with them regularly. The Metallurgical Society (TMS) is another great source.
