This study examines the effect of tensile test temperatures ranging from 50°C to 600°C on the tensile properties of a modified 9Cr-1Mo ferritic steel (T91) and a 316L stainless steel (SS) after high energy proton irradiation at about 35°C-67°C. After 1-3 dpa, the proton-irradiated T91 steel was tensile tested at temperatures from 50°C to 600°C. It was observed that the yield strength and ultima...

Abstract In the present study, gas tungsten arc welding was employed to weld Ti-stabilized 439 ferritic stainless steel using 308L austenitic filler electrode with varying heat input, i.e., low input (LHI) and high (HHI). The optical microstructure revealed formation of retained austenite (RA) ferrite in zone (WZ), whereas peppery structure consisting chromium-rich carbides were observed heat-a...

The stability and design of fixed-ended stainless steel equal-leg angle section members subjected to axial compression are studied herein. An experimental investigation, comprising material testing, initial geometric imperfection measurements tests on hot-rolled austenitic columns is first presented. test results, in combination with existing data collected from the literature, then used for va...

A comprehensive experimental study on the structural behaviour of stainless steel T-stubs in Grade EN 1.4003 ferritic and employing A4–80 bolts is reported this paper. total 17 various geometric configurations including both single double bolt rows were tested under monotonic tension. The focus tests was failing predominantly mode 1. Auxiliary tensile performed coupons extracted from T-stub fla...
