abstract

the effect of ferrite grain size on the fatigue and tensile properties of dual phase steels with a 0.25 volumefraction of martensite (vm) under different heat treatments was investigated. the heat treatments werehomogenized at 1200 oc along with several subsequent normalizations at 910 oc, resulting in differentmicrostructures and mechanical properties. after heat treatment, the obtained steels, with differentferrite grain sizes, were heat treated to obtain a dual phase ferritic-martensitic microstructure. in orderto process the dual phase steels, low carbon manganese steel was used. fatigue tests were carried outat room temperature and the fracture surfaces of the fatigue specimens were studied by sem. the dataobtained by the fatigue tests indicated that the fatigue strength at 107 cycles had a linear increase withdecreasing the grain size of ferrite, while higher applied stress had a little effect on the grain size andthe fatigue strength. the fracture surface of the fatigue specimens showed two distinct regions, namely,the fatigue fracture and the final fracture. striation lines were clearly seen in the region of the fatiguefailure. furthermore, for all microstructures, the final fracture was mainly brittle.

The Effects of Inhomogeneous Mechanical Properties of the Ferrite Phase on Dual Phase Steel’s Behavior

The microstructure of dual phase steels can be considered as a matrix of ferrite phase reinforced by martensite particles. Recent measurements show that the mechanical properties of the ferrite phase are changed with the distance from the martensite grains. In this paper, a new method has been proposed to consider this phenomenon in finite element modeling of dual phase steels microstructure. I...

THE EFFECT OF COOLING RATE AND AUSTENITE GRAIN SIZE ON THE AUSTENITE TO FERRITE TRANSFORMATION TEMPERATURE AND DIFFERENT FERRITE MORPHOLOGIES IN MICROALLOYED STEELS

Abstract: transformation temperature and different ferrite morphologies in one Nb-microalloyed (HSLA) steel has beeninvestigated. Three different austenite grain sizes were selected and cooled at two different cooling rates for obtainingaustenite to ferrite transformation temperature. Moreover, samples with specific austenite grain size have beenquenched, partially, for investigation on the mic...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
