Bainitic transformation at low transformation temperatures leads to a microstructure involving fine plates of bainitic ferrite and thin films of retained austenite. This microstructure has shown ultimate tensile strength of about 2.2 GPa, noticeable uniform elongation in the range of 5 to 30%, hardness values of about 600 to 670 HV and impact toughness in the range of 30 to 40 MPa m1/2. With ca...

The performance of components produced by conventional route of a thermo mechanical process and those produced by continuous casting is interesting from different aspects of economy and technology. The performance of products in their service depends on their properties which are strongly influenced by production routes. In the present work the hardness, tensile and tensile-impact behaviors of ...

One of the most important applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is as reinforcement of metal matrix composites, because of their excellent mechanical properties. In this study, Al-TiO2-multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) nanocomposite is fabricated using isostatic pressing followed by hot extrusion. Mechanical alloying is used to mix powders of aluminium, TiO2 and MWCNTs. TiO2 with the amo...

Low dimensional sp3 carbon nanostructures have attracted increasing attention recently, due to their unique properties and appealing applications. Based on in silico studies, this work exploits the impacts from functional groups tensile of nanothreads (NTH) – a new nanostructure. It is found that will alter local bond configuration induce initial stress concentration, which significantly reduce...

Bagasse is a waste generated in abundance from the sugarcane industry. This investigation was planned to convert bagasse into useful composite. For this purpose obtained sugar cane juice producer. In study, extraction of fibers done manually and they were treated with sodium hydroxide. The had higher tensile properties as compared untreated ones, so alkali used reinforcement for making composit...
