In this paper, the authors used regression analysis to determine the correlation of the yield strength and the tensile strength to the diamond pyramid hardness values for over 150 nonaustenitic, hypoeutectoid steels.
Abstract
Hardness values as well as yield and tensile strength values were compiled for over 150 nonaustenitic, hypoeutectoid steels having a wide range of compositions and a variety of microstructures. The microstructures include ferrite, pearlite, martensite, bainite, and complex multiphase structures. The yield strength of the steels ranged from approximately 300 MPa to over 1700 MPa. Tensile strength varied over the range of 450-2350 MPa. Regression analysis was used to determine the correlation of the yield strength and the tensile strength to the diamond pyramid hardness values for these steels. Both the yield strength and tensile strength of the steels exhibited a linear correlation with the hardness over the entire range of strength values. Empirical relationships are provided that enable the estimation of strength from a bulk hardness measurement. A weak effect of strain-hardening potential on the hardness-yield strength relationship was also observed.

Surface polishing of AISI 304 stainless steel with micro plasma beam irradiation

TL;DR: In this article, the polishing abilities of micro-plasmine beam were verified, and AISI 304 stainless steel was chosen as the experimental material, and the results indicated that the surface roughness could decrease from 5.11´±´0.55´μm to 0.41´±''0.05''μm when the number of passes was 3.

Wide Range Mechanical Customization of Mg-Gd Alloys With Low Degradation Rates by Extrusion

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical properties of binary Mg-Gd alloys by indirect extrusion is shown to obtain a property profile that is applicable to different biomedical applications. But only a few magnesium alloys have been approved for implant applications, and the choice of the alloying elements is a critical parameter and rare earth elements have proven to be mechanically suitable and biologically tolerable.

The determination of yield strength from hardness measurements

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the 0.2 pct offset yield strength of a material can be obtained from simple hardness measurements using the expression σ y = (H/3)(0.1) m-2cffff, where H is the Diamond pyramid hardness and m is Meyer's hardness coefficient.

Microhardness mapping and the hardness-yield strength relationship in high-pressure diecast magnesium alloy AZ91

TL;DR: In this article, microhardness maps of cross-sections of high pressure diecast test bars of AZ91 have been determined, and the mean hardness obtained by integrating the micro hardness maps over the entire cross-section increased with decreasing thickness of the bars, and was found to be in good correlation with each bar's yield strength.
