Explores advanced high strength steels, including TRIP and TWIP steels, their properties, microstructures, and applications in modern car body structures.
Discusses the 'hot-spot' method for evaluating fatigue in welded joints and the influence of weld type, shape, length, and thickness on fatigue resistance.
Covers the composition, properties, and applications of aluminum alloys, including mechanical properties of heat-treatable and work-hardened alloys, and structural light alloys like aluminum, magnesium, and titanium.
