The mechanisms of chip formation in machining hardened steels

TL;DR: In this article, the formation of saw-tooth chips is attributed to the operation of thermally softened micro-shear zones, which, it is suggested, are a precursor to adiabatic shear initiation.

Effect of laser clad repair on the fatigue behaviour of ultra-high strength AISI 4340 steel

TL;DR: In this paper, the fatigue behavior of an ultra-high strength steel (>1800 MPa) was evaluated to assess the potential of using laser cladding as a repair tool for such steels in aeronautical structural applications.

Effect of heat treatment on mechanical and ballistic properties of a high strength armour steel

TL;DR: In this article, an ultra high strength armour steel was austenatised at 910°C followed by tempering at 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600°C after heat treatment the properties of tensile strength, ductility, charpy impact strength, hardness and microstructure were evaluated from the mechanical tests and metallographic analysis respectively.

Effect of hardness, microstructure, normal load and abrasive size on friction and on wear behaviour of 35NCD16 steel

TL;DR: Wear and friction properties depend on many parameters such as normal load and material hardness as mentioned in this paper, however, coupled contributions of microstructure and abrasive particle size are less investigated.

Tempering of steel

G. R. Speich, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an understanding of the processes involved in the tempering of iron-carbon martensites and how they are affected by alloying elements, and how these processes overlap and occur on such a fine scale.

Crystal structure and morphology of the carbide precipitated from martensitic high carbon steel during the first stage of tempering

TL;DR: A martensitic steel containing 1.13 wt. %C was tempered at 120°C for 1-100 days and the structure and morphology of precipitated carbide were studied by electron microscopy and selected area diffraction as discussed by the authors.

Mechanisms of tempered martensite embrittlement in low alloy steels

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of interlath films of retained austenite in TME and found that the embrittlement was concurrent with the inter-lath precipitation of cementite during tempering and the consequent mechanical instability of retained Austenite during subsequent loading.
