In this paper, an advanced thermo-mechanical treatment was conducted on AISI 316 austenitic stainless steel. At first, three samples were rolled at the ambient temperature, the temperature of -20 ºC (dry ice and ethanol) and -196 ºC (liquid nitrogen). Then, the samples were annealed at 800 ºC in the time range of 1 to 15 minutes. In each step, the microhardness values of the samples were measur...

The work is devoted to the study of corrosion behavior TiNi alloys with original austenitic and martensitic structure in various states. In course research, it was found that rate destruction for coarse-grained ultrafine-grained Ti 49.0 Ni 51.0 different: alloy turned out be less resistant higher than state. X-ray phase analysis revealed as a result processes, change composition occurs, accompa...

In dry machining, the tool-chip interface temperature is a critical factor affecting the engineering performance of WC–Co tools. As the temperature variation of the cutting tool in dry machining is similar to that in annealing process, the effect of tool-chip interface temperature on the mechanical properties of cutting tool materials in dry machining can be studied by means of annealing experi...

We have investigated the effects of helium ion irradiation energy and sample temperature on the performance of grain boundaries as helium sinks in ultrafine grained and nanocrystalline tungsten. Irradiations were performed at displacement and non-displacement energies and at temperatures above and below that required for vacancy migration. Microstructural investigations were performed using Tra...

Equal channel angular Pressing (ECAP) is an innovative technique for developing ultrafine-grained microstructures first developed by Segal et al in 1981 in the former Soviet Union. The ECAP method consists of two channels that intersect at an angle, generally comprised between 90◦ and 135◦ . The deformation is produced by shear as the billet is extruded through the channels. One of the geometri...
