The effect of the austenitizing heat-treatment variables on the fracture toughness of high-speed steel
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of austenitizing treatment and tempering on the fracture behavior of high-speed steel (DIN 1.3333) has been investigated by determining the KIC and JIC values via the performance of modified compact tension (CT) and single edge notched (SEN) tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research on splitting phenomenon of isochronal martensitic transformation in T91 ferritic steel
TL;DR: In this article, the splitting phenomenon of martensitic transformation is accompanied with the precipitation of needle-like M3C particles, which is suppressed by rapid cooling after austenitization.

Acoustic Emission During Austenite → ε Martensitic Phase Transformation in TWIP/TRIP Steels
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the acoustic emission in two different TWIP/TRIP steels during thermally induced γ-e martensitic phase transformation and found that the noise activity was considerably larger for heating than cooling.

Assessment of hardening due to non-coherent precipitates in tungsten-rhenium alloys at the atomic scale
TL;DR: An analytical model to predict precipitation hardening of σ, χ and hcp phase particles in bcc W is proposed and compared to available experimental data from mechanical tests on irradiated materials.

Effects of subsequent treatments on the microstructure and mechanical properties of SKD11 tool steel samples processed by multi-stage thixoforging
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of heat treatments on the former solid and liquid areas of the multi-stage thixoforged SKD11 sample were quite different, because the contents of alloying elements and microstructural morphologies in these areas were different.
