Low carbon low alloyed high strength steel with the chemical composition suitably designed to support stabilization of retained austenite was used in this work. The processed by conventional annealing for a reference and several different heat thermo-mechanical treatments were further proposed test typical TRIP (transformation induced plasticity), DP (dual phase) QP (quenching partitioning) pro...

The structural behavior fire-resistant steel is essential; fire-resistant steel is proven to have higher strength at elevated temperature than that of conventional steel. Also, the requirement of fire protection in the fire-resisting steel can be relaxed as compared with conventional steel structures. However, the design criteria for the application of the fire-resisting steel in steel columns ...

The microstructure of steel is decisive for its chemical, physical and mechanical properties. Depending on the parameters characterising liquid metal as well as the parameters of the steel casting influencing the crystallisation process, the macrostructure of casts and ingots consist of three, two or only one crystallisation zone. In steel ingots, its most frequent by consist of three zones: ch...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $g$-dual frames for Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules, and then the properties and stability results of $g$-dual frames  are given.  A characterization of $g$-dual frames, approximately dual frames and dual frames of a given frame is established. We also give some examples to show that the characterization of $g$-dual frames for Riesz bases in Hilbert spaces is ...

Proof of concept was obtained that Fe(0) can stoichiometrically reduce nitrate to ammonium and that cathodic hydrogen [produced during anaerobic Fe(0) corrosion by water] can sustain microbial denitrification to reduce nitrate to more innocuous products (i.e., N2O and N2). Autotrophic, denitrifying growth on Fe(0) was proven through the use of a dual-flask apparatus. Cathodic H2 from a flask co...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the quantitative effects on torque expression of varying the slot size of stainless steel orthodontic brackets and the dimension of stainless steel wire, and to analyze the limitations of the experimental methods used. MATERIALS AND METHODS In vitro studies measuring torque expression in conventional and self-ligating stainless steel brackets with a torque-measuring devi...

To improve the durability and serviceability of reinforced concrete structures, different variants dual-phase reinforcing steel were developed within research project NEWREBAR. The investigated variant new material, termed DPD2 steel, has a specific microstructure that increases corrosion resistance, but its yielding strength is less than Tempcore B500B. no plateau, which characteristic convent...

This study focused on the evaluation of the machinability of different carburising steel grades by using a cemented carbide cutting tool during semi finishing of steel. The effect of the steel composition, microstructure and inclusion characteristics on the cutting tool wear in the soft part turning was evaluated for a reference steel R (0.028% S, 0.0009% O), a clean C steel (0.003% S, 0.0005% ...

The formation of He bubbles in Ferritic/Martensitic steel HT9 is investigated through the use situ Transmission Electron Microscopy coupled with implantation and heavy ion irradiation. Of particular interest effect increasing appm/dpa ratio on growth bubbles, as well sequential order irradiation i.e. He-pre-implantation followed by heavy-ion versus true dual-beam role discussed.

During the last century the steel industry was influenced by several crises which invoked strong innovation activities in development of new classes of steels. innovation was based on the statement of representative of automotive industry bernhard rolinson who said: “Steel has a long tradition but despite of this its potential from the point of view of material properties is exploited only to 2...
