Recent advancements in metal fibers have introduced a promising new type of stainless steel fiber with high stiffness, high failure strain, and a thickness < 100 μm (<0.00394 in.) that can be utilized in a steel fiber-reinforced polymer. However, stainless steel is known to be susceptible to pitting corrosion. The main goal of this study is to compare the impact of corrosion on the mechanical p...

In this work, we attempt a quantitative estimation of the type IV rupture stress for welds in ferritic power plant steels containing 9–12 wt. % chromium, using a neural network in a Bayesian framework. This article describes the methodology that was used in creating and evaluating the neural network model. The sensitivity of the rupture stress to the test conditions, the composition of the stee...

the solubility of co2 in the primary, secondary, tertiary and sterically hindered amine aqueous solutions at various conditions was studied. in the present work, the modified kent-eisenberg (m-ke), the extended debye-hückel (e-dh) and the pitzer models were employed to study the solubility of co2 in amine aqueous solutions. two explicit equations are presented to evaluate the concentration of h...

Electrochemical synthesis of poly ortho toludine (POTD) was achieved on Teflon coated cylindrical stainless steel electrodes with base diameter 2mm . Aniline in 2-propyl pentatonic acid solution was polymerized on the surface of stainless steel using cyclic voltametry technique. Adherent and red polymer films were obtained on the electrodes.. The corrosion inhibitive performance of POTD+2PPA , ...

Layers of high silica zeolites, synthesized with an organic structure directing agent (OSDA) and grown onto porous support structures, frequently suffer from the thermal stress during the removal of OSDA via the calcination process. The different thermal expansion coefficients of the zeolite and the support material, especially when stainless steel is used as a support, causes enormous tension ...

In this study, two-dimensional finite element modeling was used to study the simultaneous effect of the cell shape and regular cell distribution on the anisotropy of the elastic properties of 316L stainless steel foam. In this way, the uniaxial compressive stress-strain curve was predicted using a geometric model and fully solid 316L stainless steel. The results showed that the elastic tangent ...

In this study, X-ray fractography’)-‘) technique was applied to the (GZ+~) dual phase stainless steel. Effect of the rolling direction on fatigue properties was discussed. Residual stress near the surface was measured by using X-ray diffraction method to the depth direction. Relations between X-ray parameter and fracture mechanics parameter were examined. As the result, distribution of the phas...
