Annealing of supersaturated AA3xxx alloys at low temperatures usually results in sluggish recrystallization kinetics. This is due to the joint effect of the following factors: low nucleation rate, reduced grain boundary mobility, and large amount of fine p ...
The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) phenomena occurring in different thermo-mechanical processing (TMP) conditions for various metallic materials are reviewed. Several types of DRX are described: discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX), continuous d ...
In this article, the hot deformation mechanism of a laser-welded near a TA15 Ti-alloy joint was studied by hot tensile tests conducted at temperatures ranging from 800 degrees C to 900 degrees C with strain rates ranging from 1.0 x 10(-1) s(-1) to 1.0 x 10 ...
In this study, the hot deformation behavior of an Al-1% Mg alloy with very coarse initial grain size was investigated in terms of flow stress evolution and grain refinement mechanism. The large grain size was employed to study the traditional continuous dy ...
Investigations on the fatigue strength of steel reinforcement bars (rebars) mainly involves fatigue tests with hot rolled (HR) and cold worked (CW) steels. However, in the last few decades, HR and CW rebars were replaced by quenched and selftempered (QST) ...
Particle stimulated nucleation (PSN) is one of the importantmechanisms of recrystallizationwhich is investigated in this research during non-isothermal annealing of multi-directionally forged solution treated aluminum alloy 2024. Non-isothermal annealing i ...
Just recently, valuable experimental data that characterized the hysteretic behavior of deep wide-flange steel columns (i.e., column depth, d >16 inches) at full-scale became available. Such members are typically used in steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs ...
The present invention relates to a cantilever or membrane comprising a body and an elongated beam attached to the body. The elongated beam includes a first layer comprising a first material, a second layer comprising a second material having an elastic mod ...
Using different homogenization treatments, different initial microchemistry conditions in terms of solid solution levels of Mn, and number densities and sizes of constituents and dispersoids were achieved in an Al-Mn-Fe-Si model alloy. For each homogenized ...
It is well known that strong concurrent precipitation, mainly located along grain/subgrain boundaries, results in a coarse and elongated grain structure, and unusual sharp P {011} and/or M {113} texture components during annealing of supersatur ...
