In order to assess the integrity of welded pressure vessel containing a crack, behavior three-point bending specimens made HSLA steel joint are tested at -40°C, and their fracture behaviour analyzed, as conservative measure crack resistance. Specimens were low-alloyed NIONIKRAL 70, by SAW process. Surface notches machined electro-erosion method in parent metal (PM), heat affected zone (HAZ) wel...

thermomechanical control process steel produced by rolling has a significant anisotropy. the elongated grains and inclusions formed during hot rolling of ferrite and low carbon hsla steels directly influence the anisotropy of the steel’s mechanical properties as a result of microstructural anisotropy. the present research deals with this anisotropy, and particular attention has been paid to the...

The corrosion resistant coatings used conventionally are susceptible to degradation, leading to pitting corrosion. This report summarizes the corrosion resistant nature of thin films of Cu-TiO2 coated on mild steel, in different corrosion environments. Nano meter thick (100nm, 125nm, 150nm) composite coatings were coated on steel substrate by RF magnetron sputtering technique. The required targ...

In order to solve the challenging problem of microbial infections caused by microorganisms on medical implants, it is imperative to develop novel antimicrobial biomaterials. This work demonstrated that 317L-Cu stainless steel (SS), created by adding copper through a solution and aging heat treatment process, exhibited good antibacterial properties against staphylococcus aureus, achieving 2 log ...

Thermo-mechanical controlled processing (TMCP) is employed to obtain the required level of mechanical properties contemporary high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel plates utilized for gas and oil pipeline production. The strength, deformation behavior resistance formation propagation running fractures are mainly determined by its microstructure crystallographic texture. These formed as a result ...

Abstract To improve the tribological performance of CSS-42L bearing steel, smooth surfaces (SSs), groove-textured (GSs), GSs with Sn-Ag-Cu (GSs-SAC), and Sn-Ag-Cu-Ti 3 C 2 (GSs-SACT) were prepared on CSS-42L. In addition, experimental studies conducted properties. The obtained results indicated that GSs-SACT exhibited best anti-friction noise reduction performances. These remarkable performance...
