Microstructure Characterization of Bending Effects in 304L Stainless Steel Cladded with Low‐Alloy Steel Weld

steel research international, EarlyView.
Prebending of 304L/Q345R cladded plates significantly alters the subsequent weld thermal cycle and modifies the local interfacial microstructure. Combined electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and microscopy analysis demonstrates that deformation twinning, martensitic transformation, and defect initiation are concentrated at the trimaterial junction,

Atom probe tomography characterization of heavily cold drawn pearlitic steel wire

Ultramicroscopy, 2011
Atom Probe Tomography (APT) was used to analyze the carbon distribution in a heavily cold drawn pearlitic steel wire with a true strain of 6.02. The carbon concentrations in cementite and ferrite were separately measured by a sub-volume method and compared with the literature data.

Influence of Tramp Elements on Phase Transformations, Structure, and Properties of Scrap‐Based Steels: A Focused Review of Recent Developments

steel research international, EarlyView.
This review explains how impurities from recycled scrap affect steel production and performance. Even small amounts (far below 1%) of these impurities can change how steel behaves during fabrication but also affect the properties of the end product. With better understanding and targeted countermeasures, these challenges can be managed, enabling wider ...

Effect of Stress Relaxation and Annealing Treatment on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Steel Wire

Buildings
Bridge cables composed of 1960 MPa steel wires can be damaged during vehicle fires. Therefore, it is necessary to study the high-temperature mechanical properties of steel wires under load-bearing conditions.

Multifaceted Behavior and Versatility Features of Ferritic Stainless Steels, Part II: Investigating Electromagnetic, Mechanical, and Corrosion Behavior

steel research international, EarlyView.
This review's second part details the mechanical, corrosion, and electromagnetic behaviors of FSSs. It integrates the foundational microstructure (texture/defects/precipitates) and processing effects from Part I to establish and analyze complex property–property interrelationships critical for high‐performance applications.

Unraveling the Effect of Tramp Elements on Phase Transformations in Steels by Combining CALPHAD Modeling and Experiments

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
This study investigates how tramp elements from increased scrap usage influence phase transformations in low‐alloyed steel. Combining dilatometry and microscopy reveal that tramp elements delay transformations, reduce critical cooling rates and increase hardenability.

Anchorage System Contribution to Post‐Tensioned Bridge Collapse

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This paper presents an experimental investigation of a 1960s precast post‐tensioned girder bridge in Trstena, Slovakia, revealing severe corrosion and anchorage degradation that ultimately led to its collapse. The findings highlight critical vulnerabilities in obsolete anchorage systems and emphasize the need for proactive assessment and maintenance of

Evolution of crystallographic texture and material anisotropy effects resulting from uniaxial deformation for high‐strength steels with high manganese content

Journal of Applied Crystallography, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 163-178, February 2026.
The present study investigates the deformation behavior of high‐strength steels and the associated evolution of material anisotropy. Particular focus is placed on the impact of crystallographic texture and intergranular strains on how residual stresses can be evaluated using X‐ray diffraction and the associated assessment of weld seams in the ...

Linking Heat Treatment to Plastic Deformation in Pearlitic Steels Through Mesoscale Modeling

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 21, November 2025.
Surface wear on rail and wheel steels results from surface deformation during use. This research uses mathematical models to forecast the plastic behavior of pearlitic steels, connected to the microstructure formed during heat treatment. While the cooling rate impacts the steels’ strength, the size of prior austenite grains and blocks does not ...

Microstructural Evolution, Performance, and Triboelectric Response of Cu–Fe Composites Processed via Deformation‐Driven Metallurgy

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
Microhardness reached a maximum of 158.5 ± 3.9 HV at 4 wt.% Fe, with tensile strength peaking at 331.9 ± 9.9 MPa, whereas higher Fe addition (6 wt.%) caused microhardness and tensile strength to decline to 142.4 ± 4.8 HV and 294.7 ± 9.2 MPa, respectively, due to particle clustering and thermal softening.
