Shear forming of 304L stainless steel – microstructural aspects

Relaxation Peaks of Cold Worked 304l Stainless Steel

In this investigation internal friction of cold worked 304L austenitic stainless steel was measured and the new peaks (PlIP2,P3) were found. The height of those peaks increased with cold work degree. The temperature of the main peak P3 was 33513340K at the frequency of -1,000Hz. The activation energies and frequency factors were obtained from peak shift. The values were 0.4evl 0.4evl 0.6ev and ...

Microstructural analysis of expanded stainless steel 304 cylinders

A gas-gun technique to radially expand cylinders of a chosen material, based on a technique developed in 1979, has recently been re-established. Stainless steel 304 cylinders of length 160 mm, internal diameter 67 mm and thickness either 0.5 or 1.5 mm have been expanded using a 70 mm bore single-stage gas-gun. Microstructural analysis of the recovered specimens was performed using optical micro...

Effect of Mean Stress on Fatigue Crack Growth Behavior of Stainless Steel 304L

Stainless steel has been employed in many engineering applications ranging from pharmaceutical equipment to piping in the nuclear reactors and storage to chemical products. In this attempt, simulation of fatigue crack growth based on experimental results of austenitic stainless steel 304L was presented using AFGROW code when NASGRO mode laws adopted. Double through crack at hole specimen is use...
