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...

To investigate the hot deformation behavior of 17-7 PH stainless steel, hot compression tests were carried out at the temperatures of 950, 1050 and 1150 oC and strain rates of 0.001 s-1 to 0.1 s-1. Accordingly, the hot working behavior was studied by the analyses of flow stress curves, work hardening rate versus stress curves, exponent- type constitutive equations and deformed microstructures. ...

background: one of the methods used for joining metals together is welding, which can be carried out using different techniques such as electric spot welding. this study evaluated the effect of electric spot welding on the load defl ection rate of stainless steel and chromium-cobalt orthodontic wires. materials and methods: in this experimental-laboratory study, load defl ection rate of 0.016 ×...

Objective: Investigate the effects of heat-activated NiTi and stainless steel wires to evaluate potential changes in the position of mandibular incisors in extraction cases as correlated with treatment length. Method: The sample consisted of 36 individuals of both genders, Brazilian Caucasians with mean initial age of 15 years and 5 months with Class I and Class II malocclusions, divided into t...

The aim of this work is to determine the fatigue life of 316L stainless steel. The mechanisms of fatigue of 316L stainless steels were investigated and discussed. The fatigue tests were carried out at constant-amplitude cyclic loading with load ratio R=0.1. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is then used to examine the fracture surface. The results show that the fatigue limit of 316L stainless ...

INTRODUCTION Intravascular coronary stenting has been used in the treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD), with a major limitation of in-stent restenosis (ISR). The 316 stainless steel has been widely used for coronary stents. In this study, we developed a novel coating method to reduce ISR by simultaneously coating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and anti-CD34 antibody on 316L sta...

The evaporation of inertial confinement fusion first wall materials from unattenuated pellet X-rays and from radiation emitted by a cavit.y buffer qas is examined. The low vapor pressure and low X-ray attenuation coefficient of carbon give it a lower erosion rate than stainless steel, despite the larger thermal conductivity of Type 316 stainless steel. For the argon buffer gas containing 0.2% N...
