In the current study, the recrystallization behavior of 75% cold-rolled Fe-22Mn-10Al-1.4C steel during annealing at 750, 770, 790, 810, and 830°C was studied. X-ray diffraction patterns and optical microscopy were used to characterize microstructures. The Vickers Micro-hardness test was used to characterize recrystallization kinetics during annealing. Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov (JMAK) model...

The deformation mechanism of lean duplex stainless steel (LDSS) is overly complex not only by their dual phase microstructure, but also due to metastable austenite, which can deform different mechanisms and transform martensite strain. purpose this study was investigate the tensile test on low deformed cold-rolled samples (4%-22%) a 2304 LDSS. microstructure analyzed X-ray diffraction, optical ...

austenite is a semi-stable phase in most stainless steels that deforms to martensite under md30 and forms martensitetype ά and ε due to the deformation in the steels. since the distribution of strain induced martensite plays animportant role in achieving desired properties, the main objective of the present work is to model martensitedistribution of ά during cold rolling using finite element me...

Microstructural morphology is known to have a significant impact on the mechanical properties of dual-phase steels. A fine ferrite grain size and random distribution small second phase islands are desirable provide superior isotropic compared banded that typical for this type steel. rapid alloy prototyping (RAP) facility has been used investigate three different DP 800 variants by systematicall...

   A low carbon Al-killed Ti-added steel was produced in Mobarakeh Steel Complex in Iran. Mechanical properties and microstructural characterizations of steel in the as-cast, hot-rolled, cold-rolled and annealed conditions are presented. Dilatometery tests were carried out to measure the finishing and annealing temperatures of steel. It was found that the addition of small amounts of Ti increas...

The medium Mn steels are gaining increasing attention due to their excellent combination of mechanical properties and material cost. A cold-rolled 0.1C5Mn medium Mn steel with a ferrite matrix plus metastable austenite duplex microstructure was resistance spot-welded with various welding currents and times. The nugget size rose with the increase of heat input, but when the welding current excee...

This paper reports on the precipitation behaviour and microstructural evolution in ~20% cold rolled NbMoV and V single microalloyed low carbon steels during intercritical annealing. The microstructure and precipitation behaviour were studied by optical and scanning/transmission electron microscopy and microanalysis, X-ray diffraction technique and Vickers hardness testing. After intercritical a...
