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.

Assessing the Very High Cycle Fatigue Behavior and Frequency Effect of Structural Steel Welds

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1529-1541, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The very high cycle fatigue behavior of S275J2+N flux‐core arc welded joints was investigated using the ultrasonic fatigue testing method at a loading frequency of 20 kHz. A bespoke specimen design featuring the weld toe was employed to more suitably represent in‐service welded joints than typical ultrasonic fatigue testing specimens.

Comparative Fatigue Analysis of Structural Steels Considering Welding and Surface Effects

Strain, Volume 61, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT There are limited data on the very high‐cycle fatigue for structural steel welds for over 10 million cycles. The purpose of this research is a fatigue performance comparison of the welds made of steels S355JR+AR and S275JR+AR. The goal of reaching the gigacycle fatigue domain is achieved using the ultrasonic fatigue testing at 20 kHz.

Stress corrosion cracking and fracture toughness variation of high strength steels. [PDF]

, 2010
The stress corrosion cracking process is at this moment an unknown mechanism of deterioration. It is a process that implies the joint action of the media, the presence of corrosion or a surface defect and of stress in the metal.

An Experimental and Computational Framework to Investigate the Microstructural Effects on the Mechanical Properties of Pearlitic Steels

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 2, January 2025.
A robust computational framework is proposed, which is designed to simulate microstructural‐scale plastic deformation and damage in pearlitic steels. The framework is calibrated and validated using experimental data from pearlitic steel rail samples. Subsequently, it is employed to investigate the impact of microstructural parameters, such as cementite

Strength Anisotropy and Residual Stress in Drawn Pearlite Steel Wire

ISIJ International, 2004
Strength anisotropy is found by tensile and compressive tests for a drawn pearlite steel wire, where the compressive tests are performed for prepared specimens along directions of 0, 45 and 90 degrees with respect to the drawing direction. The influence of annealing on such anisotropic strength is also examined. To make clear the origin of the strength

Co‐Deformation in Severely Deformed Multiphase Crystalline Metallic Systems: Physical Mechanisms, Intrinsic Limitations, and Perspectives

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 26, Issue 19, October 2024.
Taking advantage of co‐deformation mechanisms is a promising way to achieve fine grain metal matrix composites or architectured structures with unique properties. Understanding physical mechanisms is critical to promote refinement or fragmentation or mechanical mixing.

Surface Functionalization of Novel Work‐Hardening Multi‐Principal‐Element Alloys by Ultrasonic Assisted Milling

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 26, Issue 20, October 2024.
Multi‐principal‐element alloys (MPEAs) with high work hardening capacity, like Hadfield steel, can extend conventional alloy systems. In this study, CoFeNi‐based MPEAs with Mn and C are cast and mechanically finished using ultrasonic milling. The resulting MPEAs show significant hardness increase and improved wear resistance, demonstrating their ...

Influence of Tramp Elements on Surface Properties of Liquid Medium‐Carbon Steels

steel research international, Volume 95, Issue 8, August 2024.
Greenhouse gas restrictions are forcing steel producers to increase recycling rates. The resulting higher tramp element content affects the oxidic cleanness. Herein, the influence of tramp elements on surface tension, contact angle, and formation of nonmetallic inclusions is investigated.
