An Ultra-low Carbon, Thermomechanically Controlled Processed Microalloyed Steel: Microstructure and Mechanical Properties

Abstract: In the current study, a novel ultra-low carbon, high-molybdenum-bearing microalloyed steel has been thermomechanically processed. Transformation of this steel during continuous cooling has been assessed. Variation in the microstructure and mechanical properties at different finish rolling temperatures has been studied. The average grain size, misorientation of grain boundary, and distribution of ferrite grains have been analyzed by using electron backscatter diffraction. The lower yield strength (251 to 377 MPa) with moderate tensile strength (406 to 506 MPa) along with high ductility (30 to 47 pct) has been achieved in the selected range of finish rolling temperatures. Superior impact toughness value in the range of 153 to 162 J is obtained in the subsize specimen even at subzero temperatures (233 K [−40 °C]), which is attributed to fine average ferrite grain size. The acicular ferrite dominated microstructure obtained at the 1023 K (750 °C) finish rolling temperature is the most attractive microstructure for pipeline applications due to its excellent combination of strength and toughness.

Impact toughness of high strength low alloy TMT reinforcement ribbed bar

Abstract: Charpy V-notch impact toughness of 600 MPa yield stress TMT rebars alloyed with copper, phosphorus, chromium and molybdenum has been evaluated. Subsize Charpy specimens were machined from the rebar keeping the tempered martensite rim intact. The copper-phosphorus rebar showed toughness of 35 J at room temperature. The toughness of copper-molybdenum and copper-chromium rebars was 52 J. The lower toughness of phosphorus steel is attributed to solid solution strengthening and segregation of phosphorus to grain boundaries. Due to superior corrosion resistance, copper-phosphorus TMT rebar is a candidate material in the construction sector.

Artificial Neural Network Modeling for Prediction of Roll Force During Plate Rolling Process

Abstract: Accurate prediction of roll force during hot rolling process is very important for model based automation (Level-2) of plate mills. Exit thickness of plate for each pass is calculated from roll gap, mill spring, and predicted roll force. The response of gauge control hardware is highly dependant on the accuracy of prediction of roll force. Traditionally, mathematical models based on plane homogeneous plastic deformation theory are used for prediction of roll force. This method is based on many simplified assumptions which are not valid for actual industrial application. An artificial neural network (ANN)–based data driven model has been developed for prediction of roll force during plate rolling process. A very accurate data acquisition system has been installed in Plate Mill of Bhilai Steel Plant through which input and output parameters have been recorded. For a particular grade of steel, inputs to the ANN model are roll gap of previous pass, roll gap of current pass, rolling temperature, rolling speed,...
