A physical model has been developed for simultaneous precipitation reactions in austenitic stainless steels, taking into account interactions between phases. Comparisons against experimental results show satisfying agreement, with the model successfully predicting the existence of transient phases that are often observed, but not predicted in equilibrium calculations. An analysis of σ -phase ki...

We have performed molecular dynamics simulations of FeS0Nizo alloys using an inter-atomic potential of the EAM-type which allows the simulation of the martensiteaustenite transition. We present results, showing the development of an inhomogeneous shear system on a nanoscale during the thermally induced austenitic transformation. In addition to this we obtained the phonon dispersion relations of...

The present work has been carried out to study the sensitization behavior of AISI 304L austenitic stainless steel weld, fabricated using GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding process). This weld was subjected to post weld thermal aging (PWTA) treatments lying in the sensitization range, viz. 700 ?C for 30 minutes, 500 minutes and 1000 minutes for studying the influence of carbide precipitation on thei...

A systematic study of the influence of plastic deformation and low temperature ageing on the carbon Dislocation Enhanced Finkelshtain Rosin Effect (DEFREIC) in austenitic alloys of Fe-Ni, Fe-Ni-MO, Fe-Mn-A1 and Fe-Cr-Ni systems with different carbon content is reported. The experiments prove that after plastic deformation at room temperature the FR effect is transformed into DEFREIC. nith both ...

In this paper, application of ultrasonic techniques for defect detection in weldments of austenitic stainless steel and maraging steel is discussed. Applications of ultrasonic techniques for characterizing microstructural changes in AISI type 316 stainless steel and modified 9Cr-1Mo ferritic steel; thermomechanical processing of 15Cr-15Ni-2.3Mo-titanium modified austenitic stainless steel (allo...

in this study, the four cr-mn-(ni-free) austenitic steels were fabricated by vacuum induction furnace. then plates with 10 mm thickness were fabricated by hot-rolling. corrosion behaviour of the four cr-mn steels in 0.1 m h2so4 solution was investigated using by open-circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis). the results indicated that the...

austenitic stainless steels are extensively used in various applications requiring good corrosion resistance and formability. in the current study, the formation of nano/ ultrafine grained austenitic microstructure in a microalloyed aisi 304l stainless steel was investigated by the advanced thermomechanical process of reversion of strain-induced martensite. for this purpose, samples were subjec...

Nitinol (NiTi), the most widely used shape-memory alloy, exhibits an austenite phase that has yet to be identified. The usually assumed austenitic structure is cubic B2, which has imaginary phonon modes, hence it is unstable. We suggest a stable austenitic structure that " on average " has B2 symmetry (observed by x-ray and neutron diffraction), but it exhibits finite atomic displacements from ...

This paper investigates the effects of process parameters on weld bead width of austenitic stainless steel SS-310 in tungsten inert gas welding. The four parameters namely welding current, type of gas, gas flow rate and included angle of weld plates during butt joint were varied at three levels. The DOE approach was used to design experimental conditions. Orthogonal array L9 was used for carryi...
