Influence of transformation temperature on carbide precipitation sequence during lower bainite formation

TL;DR: The nature of different carbides formed during the lower bainite reaction at different transformation temperatures was determined by atom probe tomography in three steels with different carbon and silicon contents.

Austenite stabilization and high strength-elongation product of a low silicon aluminum-free hot-rolled directly quenched and dynamically partitioned steel

TL;DR: In this article, the carbon partition behavior from martensite to austenite and the carbide precipitation-coarsening behavior in laths combined with the possible hot rolling deformation inheritance was investigated in a low-C low-Si Al-free steel through hot-rolling direct quenching and dynamical partitioning (HDQ&DP) processes.

On the mechanisms of tempered martensite embrittlement

TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructure and impact toughness of Fe-0.25C-10Cr based martensitic steels were investigated using both transmission electron microscopy and Mossbauer-effect spectroscopy.

Elevated temperature mechanical properties of solid section structural steel

TL;DR: In this article, the results of an extensive series of closed-loop strain-rate controlled tensile tests, performed at elevated temperatures of 400, 475, 550, 626, 700 and 900 °C under steady-state conditions and at ambient temperature with coupon specimens of core and peripheral material of commercially available mild carbon steel from round solid sections of various diameters.
