Generation Mechanisms of Non-metallic Inclusions in High-cleanliness Steel

non-linear study of various slit shear walls in steel structures

seismic retrofit strategies have been developed in the past few decades following the introduction of new seismic provisions and the availability of advanced materials and methods. it can be observed that new approaches to deal with more lateral forces are more innovative and more energy absorbent. in line with this, there is a growing trend toward the use of steel shear walls as a system with ...

Study of Non - Metallic Inclusions in Alloy 825 Hans

State of the Art in Evaluation and Control of Steel Cleanliness

The demand for cleaner steels increases every year. In addition to lowering non-metallic oxide inclusions and controlling their size distribution, morphology, and composition, clean steel requires control of sulfur, phosphorus, hydrogen, nitrogen and even carbon, and minimizing metallic impurity elements such as As, Sn, Sb, Se, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Te and Bi. These requirements vary with steel grade...

Notch fatigue behavior: Metallic glass versus ultra-high strength steel

Studying the effect of notch on the fatigue behavior of structural materials is of significance for the reliability and safety designing of engineering structural components. In this work, we conducted notch fatigue experiments of two high-strength materials, i.e. a Ti32.8Zr30.2Ni5.3Cu9Be22.7 metallic glass (MG) and a 00Ni18Co15Mo8Ti ultra-high strength steel (CM400 UHSS), and compared their no...

Corrosion at Sulphide Inclusions in Stainless Steel

Auger analysis was performed using a high resolution scanning auger electron microscope and auger electron spectroscopy. Elemental auger contour maps for corroded sulphide inclusions in stainless steel were presented. It was found that the copper enriched-manganese sulphide inclusions were uniformly corroded, which might be due to CU2S deposition on the surface of corroding inclusions. In contr...
