Journal ArticleDOI
Inhomogeneity in plastic deformation of two-phase steels
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the deformation in ferritic - martensitic and ferritic pearlitic steels with 0.3 vol.% inclusion in a continuous matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of shot peening induced residual stresses and their influence on fatigue lifetime
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of shot peening on strain controlled constant amplitude fatigue was investigated, and the effect was shown to improve the fatigue strength of materials with different types of materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microstructural evaluation and interpretation of the mechanically and thermally affected zone under railway wheel flats
Johan Ahlström,Birger Karlsson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanically and thermally affected zones (TAZ) under railway wheel flats have been studied by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and hardness testing and several discoveries are made and suggestions of mechanisms are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plastic deformation of eutectoid steel with different cementite morphologies
Birger Karlsson,G. Lindén +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the workhardening rate of spheroidite is determined by the cementite morphology and is independent of the interparticle distance, and an important additional contribution comes from plastic constraint effects in the nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plastic deformation of ferrite—pearlite structures in steel
Birger Karlsson,G. Lindén +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the yield and work hardening of ferrite - pearlite aggregates with continuous ferrite matrix have been studied, special attention being paid to the relative deformation of the individual constituents, which was followed by TEM and measurements of microhardness and X-ray line broadening.
