Abstract
A high-strength steel sheet having a low yield ratio and a method for producing the same. The high-strength steel sheet has a specified chemical composition and a microstructure in which ferrite is present as a major phase, and martensite is present in an area fraction of 10% or greater and less than 50% relative to an entire area of the microstructure. The martensite has an average grain diameter of 3.0 μm or less, in an entirety of the martensite, a proportion of martensite having an aspect ratio of 3 or less is 60% or greater, and the martensite having an aspect ratio of 3 or less has a carbon concentration of 0.30% or greater and 0.90% or less in mass %.
