Austenite Grain Size Estimation in Structural Steels by Linear Section Method / Ocena Wielkości Ziarna Austenitu Metodą Przekrojów Liniowych

Archives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2015
Linear section of grains in polyhedral material microstructure is a system of chords on a test line. The mean chord length is the linear grain size of the material. In the prior austenite microstructure of low alloy structural steels, the chord length is

A Comparative Study of Directed Energy Deposition‐Arc and Casting: Enhancing Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Hot‐Work Tool Steels

steel research international, EarlyView.
The study investigates the influence of DED‐Arc/M versus casting on the microstructure and material properties of X40CrMoV5‐1 (AISI H13) hot‐work tool steel. DED‐Arc/M yields finer microstructures, superior mechanical strength, and ductility, but slightly reduced thermal conductivity.

Alloy Qualification for Producing Quench and Tempered Plate Steels with Extra‐Heavy Gage

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study develops alloy concepts for ultraheavy steel plates (>100 mm) with ≥690 MPa yield strength. Through dilatometry and Jominy testing, the effects of Mo, Ni, and B on hardenability are quantified. A synergy between 0.5% Mo and 0.5%–1.0% Ni ensures core strength at low cooling rates, while boron microalloying suppresses ferrite and promotes ...

Molecular Dynamics Investigation on Grain Size-Dependent Superelastic Behavior of CuZr Shape Memory Alloys

Metals
The superelasticity of CuZr shape memory alloys (SMAs) originates from stress-induced transformations between the B2 (austenite) and B19’ (martensite) phases. Grain size is a key parameter affecting the superelasticity of shape memory alloys.

In Situ Alloying of H13 Tool Steel With TiC via PBF‐LB/M

steel research international, EarlyView.
H13 tool steel is in situ alloyed with titanium carbides (TiC) in amounts up to 30 wt.%. This approach offers the advantage that the carbides melt only partially during processing, preventing excessive carbon enrichment of the steel matrix. The resulting microstructure consists of coarse, undissolved and fine, reprecipitated carbides, leading to grain ...

Microstructure, Defects, and Fatigue Response of High‐Strength Tool Steels

steel research international, EarlyView.
The martensitic tool steel family is designed for use in various working environments where they are subjected to repeatedly high mechanical loads. Despite the continuous upgrade of material´s microstructures through compositional development or processing techniques, defects remain a critical factor for the tool performance by leading to fatigue ...

Tailoring Laser Powder Bed Fusion and Post‐Processing Parameters for JIS SKD61 Tool Steels: Surface Roughness, Microstructure, and Mechanical Properties

steel research international, EarlyView.
Laser powder bed fusion of JIS SKD61 tool steel is systematically optimized using a Taguchi design and ANOVA. Hatch spacing and layer thickness are identified as dominant parameters controlling surface roughness and tensile strength. Subsequent tempering at 600°C improves microstructural stability and mechanical performance, enabling high‐density SKD61
