Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate materials for fusion reactor structural components, liquid metal containers of spallation neutron sources, and accelerator driven systems, with good radiation resistance and thermo-mechanical properties. However, e ...
The mechanical properties of Fe-Mn-Al-C steel are significantly enhanced after κ-carbide precipitation via aging; however, most aging treatments are energy demanding because they require relatively high temperatures and extended holding times. This researc ...
Concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns offer significant advantages over columns made of either steel or concrete alone, such as large energy dissipation and increased strength and stiffness. To further improve the seismic performance of these columns, a ...
A 'one-step' theory based on Pitsch distortion is proposed to explain the continuity between the orientations of the Kurdjumov-Sachs (KS), Nishiyama-Wassermann (NW) and Pitsch variants observed on the electron backscatter diffraction pole figures of marten ...
This paper proposes a simple but powerful approach to determine the constitutive equation of tempered martensitic steels from micro-hardness tests. Finite element simulations were used to investigate the plastic flow in the contact region between the tip a ...
We report on a study of the early relaxation processes of met-Myoglobin in aqueous solution, using a combination of ultrafast broadband fluorescence detection and transient absorption with a broad UV-visible continuum probe at different pump energies. Reco ...
The austenite/martensite (fcc/bcc) interface is prevalent across many new classes of high-strength steels, and yet both its fundamental structure and its mechanism of motion remain uncertain in spite of decades of research. Here, atomistic simulations are ...
Fine twinned microstructures with {225}γ habit planes are commonly observed in martensitic steels. The present study shows that an equibalanced combination of twin-related variants associated to the Kurdjumov-Sachs orientation relationship is equivalent to ...
Five different grain sizes are produced in 0.17 wt% carbon steel using varying rates of cooling from austenitization temperatures. Controlled furnace cooling from 1100 °C and 950 °C produces coarse ferrite grains of 40 µm and 32 µm diameter, respectively, ...
Determination of the initial detaching volume is one of the major challenges in snow avalanche and debris flow forecast. Soil liquefaction due to loss of cohesion results in landslides, whereas quasi-brittle failure triggers the release of snow avalanches. ...
