It sounds like something out of science fiction. A material that gets hit, cracked, or bent — and comes out tougher for it.

TRIP steels have a microstructure consisting of at least five volume percent of retained austenite, which is embedded in a primary ferrite matrix. The microstructure also contains hard phases like ...

Due to its exceptional corrosion resistance and high strength, DSS is the best metal to use in harsh settings such as reactors, petroleum tankers, deep-sea pipelines to transport petroleum material, ...

Forging simulations with a 1522 steel microalloyed by additions of 0.25% Mo, 0.13% V and 0.01% Ti were performed on a laboratory thermomechanical processing simulator. The forging conditions included ...

When materials are joined by a welding process they are locally melted, re-solidify, and cool down to room temperature. The joining of two steel plates (pearlite) by welding is shown in the top ...

Cars, buildings, infrastructures – all unimaginable without steels. While metallic materials have been known and manufactured since more than 5000 years, there is permanent need of further property ...
