In this paper, we introduce the production of ductile iron crankshaft of the engine status quo and development. Ductile iron crankshaft discussed smelting process, alloying and manufacturing process mode. This paper focuses on the application of isothermal hardened spheroidal graphite cast iron in the crankshaft, especially its application in the power of the engine crankshaft. We also introduc...

Some forensic in situ investigations, such as those needed in transportation (for aviation, maritime, road, or rail accidents) or for parts working under harsh conditions (e.g., pipes or turbines) would benefit from a method/technique that distinguishes ductile from brittle fractures of metals—as material defects are one of the potential causes of incidents. Nowadays, the gold standard in mater...

Several factors may contribute to the structural failure of cast/ductile iron water mains, the most important of which is considered to be corrosion. The ANSI/AWWA C105/A21.5–99 10-point scoring (10-P) method is the most common method used to predict soil corrosivity potential, which is based on soil properties. For a given soil sample, each soil property is evaluated for its contribution towar...

in this research, effect of the number of nodular graphite particles, as an important characteristic of ductile cast irons, on the distribution of martensite in dual-phase ductile iron has been studied. ductile iron samples were produced by step casting and the samples were then annealed in order to achieve a fully ferritic structure. a special heat treatment was conducted to produce dual matri...
