Effect of processing temperatures on the properties of a high-strength steel welded by FSW
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of different FSW peak temperatures and cooling rates on the properties of a modern high-strength steels (HSS) was evaluated by mechanical testing, including bending, tensile testing with digital imaging correlation, Charpy impact test and hardness measurements.

A study on kinetics of static and metadynamic recrystallization during hot rolling
TL;DR: In this article, a model has been developed for evaluation of recrystallization kinetics during hot rolling of a low carbon steel, where the finite difference and the finite element methods have been coupled to consider the interconnections among temperature, strain rate, strain and the kinetics within the steel under non-isothermal hot rolling conditions.

Stability and structures of the CFCC-TmC phases: A first-principles study
TL;DR: In this paper, first-principles calculations predict high stability for the γ-M23C6 and η-M6C phases, and instability for the π-M11C2 phases, taking into account various compositional and structural possibilities.

TL;DR: The test material that differed from the most of the other studied alloys was grade EN 1.4162, which experienced fastest and most efficient ennoblement of OCP, its passive area shrank to the greatest extent and the cathodic reaction was accelerated to a significant degree by the development of biofilm.

Lath martensite plasticity enabled by apparent sliding of substructure boundaries
TL;DR: In this paper, two deformation mechanisms of lath martensite were identified, namely, intra-lath crystallographic slip and apparent substructure boundary sliding, that compete with each other to carry the overall plasticity.
