According to the definition of the ASM handbook [[1],[3]], a defect is “an imperfection… that
can be shown to cause failure by a quantitative analysis and that would not have occurred in …

Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) has arisen as one of main issues for developing high-strength
lightweight steels. The precipitation of fine particles providing as stable H-trapping sites is …

Strain accumulation as a result of cyclic loading affects the microstructure and mechanical
performance of low-alloy steels under cyclic operation conditition. This manuscript presents …

Water leakage was reported from one of the superheater tubes of boiler during operation.
The power plant is a part of copper ore smelting and refining industry. It was observed, that …

Involute spline shafts are widely used in aerospace applications. Splines often undergo
severe failure due to wear under complex operating conditions, and their life expectancy …

The investigation of high cycle fatigue (HCF) properties of materials is elaborate in
experimental design. To reduce the costs, a multiscale numerical approach to predict the …

The effect of ferrite/pearlite (F/P) banded structure on the local deformation and crack
initiation of single-edge notched tension (SENT) pipeline steel specimen was investigated …

For the purpose of developing Nb–V–Ti microalloyed, hot rolled, high strength automotive
steel for usage in heavy-duty truck wheel-discs and wheel-rims, appropriate cooling …

A representative volume element (RVE)-based strategy for modeling the hardening and
failure behavior of a ferritic–pearlitic steel at different length scales–mesoscale and …

Very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) properties of a newly developed clean spring steel were
experimentally examined under rotating bending and axial loading. As a result, this steel …
