TL;DR: In this paper, a series of dual-phase (DP) steels containing finely dispersed martensite with different volume fractions of martensites (Vm) were produced by intermediate quenching of a boron- and vanadium-containing microalloyed steel.

TL;DR: In this article, a newly developed laser speckle technique was used in situ during tensile testing to directly observe PLC bands and the effect of strain, strain rate, specimen thickness and ageing on band width, band velocity and band angle was studied.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of chloride ion concentration and pH on the corrosion behavior of 8090 and 2014 alloys has been studied in NaC1 solution using a potentiodynamic polarization technique.

TL;DR: A series of high-martensite dual-phase (HMDP) steels exhibiting a 0.3 to 0.8 volume fraction of martensite (V m), produced by intermediate quenching (IQ) of a vanadium and boron-containing microalloyed steel, have been studied for toughness and fatigue behavior to supplement the contents of a recent report by the present authors on the unusual tensile behavior of these steels.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of 0.25-1.5 wt pct mischmetal (MM) addition on the mechanical properties, microstructure, electrical conductivity, and fracture behavior of cast Al-7Si-0.3Mg (LM 25/356) alloy was examined.
