Steels with medium manganese (Mn) content (3∼ 12 wt-%) have emerged as a new alloy
class and received considerable attention during the last decade. The microstructure and …

In this review, we separate the different governing factors on austenite stability into intrinsic
and extrinsic factors, depending on the domain defined by austenite grain boundaries. The …

Deformation-induced martensitic transformation (DIMT) has been used for designing high-
performance alloys to prevent structural failure under static loads. Its effectiveness against …

A V-alloyed medium manganese steel with the yield strength of 1107 MPa, tensile strength
of 1231 MPa and total elongation of 44.5% was obtained directly by warm rolling. It is …

The mechanical property spectrum of steels can be expanded to new limits through
combining the characteristic microstructures of different steel grades in a single steel. Here …

Laser beam welding of aluminum alloy is challenged by poor mechanical properties of weld
joint. Here we employ a quasi-continuous-wave laser beam welding to join 7075-T6 …

In this paper, we report the influence of cooling processes on the yielding behavior of a
medium Mn steel (MMS) with triplex microstructure, ie austenite (γ), ferrite (α) and as …

Ultrafine-grained and heterostructured materials are currently of high interest due to their
superior mechanical and functional properties. Severe plastic deformation (SPD) is one of …

In this work, the relationship between the mechanical properties and deformation-induced
transformation mechanisms in transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) medium manganese …

The origins of the superior work hardening capability of medium manganese (M-Mn) and
conventional transformation-induced plasticity-aided bainitic ferrite (TBF) steels of similar …
