The Combined Influence of Molybdenum and Nickel in Steel Welds [PDF]
Weld metal deposit (WMD) was carried out for standard MMA welding process. This welding method is still promising mainly due to the high amount of AF (acicular ferrite) and low amount of MAC (self-tempered martensite, retained austenite, carbide) phases ...

Characteristic Property of Impact Fracture Toughness
Impact fracture experiments were performed using three CT type specimens made of PMMA with the size ratio 1 : 2 : 3 with analogous geometry. A precrack was introduced artificially in each specimen, which was subjected to impact by a wedge bar. The flyer was accelerated by a gas gun to impose an impact force to the wedge bar, and the fracture behavior ...
