A novel press-hardening steel (PHS) with an ultra-high tensile strength of 1680 MPa and an
excellent total elongation of 9.2% has been developed and produced at an industrial scale …

The effects of phase constituents on the deformation behavior and the correlated
mechanical properties at different solution temperatures were investigated in medium Mn …

Considering the problems of forming ultra-high strength steel, a medium-Mn steel with low
yield strength was prepared. The steel exhibited a yield strength of 537 MPa, a tensile …

A high-Al low-Si dual phase (DP) steel processed through thermo-mechanical processing
practice involving combination of hot rolling and water quenching was studied in terms of …

In order to better achieve the purpose of automobile lightweight, hot stamping and
quenching & partitioning (HS-Q&P) process has become a hot research focus. This process …

Interstitial-free steel (IF steel) underwent severe plastic deformation by equal-channel
angular extrusion/pressing (ECAE/P) to improve its strength, and then it was annealed to …

A conceptual approach was used to design a new Ni-free austenitic stainless steel with a
unique combination of ultrahigh strength and ductility. The concept was based on the …

In this work, a novel design scheme in which deformation-induced ferrite transformation
(DIFT) was applied to produce fine-grained steel and the quenching is controlled by …

High strength and high ductility are critical to metallic materials and have always been
pursued. A novel strategy to produce a medium Mn stainless steel with high dislocation …

The microstructure of austempered high silicon (AHS) steel before and after treating with a
modifier containing titanium, vanadium and rare earth elements (so-called Ti–V–RE …
