Defects in Carbon-Rich Ferrite of Cold-Drawn Pearlitic Steel Wires

Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, 2013
By means of X-ray line profile analysis and positron lifetime spectroscopy, densities of deformation-induced defects in carbon-rich ferrite of a series of cold-drawn pearlitic steel wires with true strains (epsilon) up to 5 are characterized. It is shown that both the dislocation densities and the vacancy cluster concentrations increase continuously ...

Effect of Spheroidizing and Normalizing Treatments on the Electromagnetic Behavior and Microstructural Transformations of Ferritic-Pearlitic Steel Wire for Flexible Marine Pipelines [PDF]

Materials Research
The tensile armor of flexible marine pipelines, responsible for the flow of oil and gas, is composed of the helical arrangement of steel wires subjected to complex stress modes that can cause unpredictable failures.

Influence of coiling on the stress relaxation of prestressing steel wires [PDF]

, 2011
The possible deleterious effects of coiling and long-term storage of coiled wires on the stress relaxation behaviour of prestressing steel wires has been checked by means of experimental work and a simple analytical model.

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,

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 ...

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.

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.

One-step annealing optimizes strength-ductility tradeoff in pearlitic steel wires [PDF]

Materials Science and Engineering: A, 2019
Abstract In this paper, the mechanical properties of a cold-drawn wire ( e = 2.43 ) are modulated by simple annealing and the variation of its microstructure is characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation.

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 ...
