Abstract This paper considers the effect of processing route on final microstructure hardness and tensile behavior a 980 MPa third generation advanced high strength steel (3G-AHSS). Of particular interest is use hot stamping thermal schedule that mimics quench partition (Q&P) heat treatment process normally used to produce Q&P grade sheet. For comparison purposes, samples were also prod...

Adaptive Hypermedia Systems (AHS) affect the way most of the Web-based applications are developed and used. One of the application domains affected by AHS is the domain of Web-based Support Systems (WSS), which is part of the more general online information systems domain. Since the very beginning of the research on AHS, different systems have been developed for different domains and applicatio...

In this paper the evolution of the Young’s Modulus (E) during unloading with plastic deformation has been studied for different Dual-Phase AHSS from DP780 to DP1400. During unloading, all the DP steels studied showed the presence of microplasticity so an Apparent Young’s Modulus (EA) has been defined. Although that in all cases EA decreased with a nonlinear behavior as the plastic strain was in...

Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) steels are, due to their excellent combination of strength ductility, seen as good candidates for the third generation advanced high (AHSS). Although TRIP effect is beneficial overall mechanical behaviour these it potentially can have detrimental effects when strained in a hydrogenenriched environment. The solubility hydrogen austenite but low carbon martens...
