Microstructures and Age Hardening Characteristics of Direct Quenched Cu Bearing HSLA Steel.

Monitoring of Precipitation Hardening in an Hsla Steel through Emat Measurements of Magnetostriction*

This work demonstrates a novel application of ultrasound: measurement of magnetostriction, the change of length of a ferromagnetic material that accompanies a change in magnetization. The technique involves measuring ultrasonic waves generated by an electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT), and it offers an alternative method of measuring magnetostriction in cases where it would not be feasib...

Influence of Cu and Ni on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of an HSLA Steel

In this research the role of alloying elements on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an as cast and hot rolled high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel was studied. Different compositions with different amount of copper in the presence of nickel, hot rolled and quenched in oil. Tensile test, hardness test, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope (OM) were used to eval...

Gas tungsten arc welding of direct quenched wear resistant steel to plain carbon steel and evaluation of its microstructure and wear properties

In this research, the dissimilar welding of St52 plain carbon steel to W400 wear resistant steel and its effect on the microstructure and wear properties of the wear resistant steel was investigated. The wear resistant steel was produced via direct quenching with nominal hardness of 400 HB. Gas tungsten arc welding was used for joining process. The results showed that welding led to hardness re...
