In the present study, the effect of C micro-alloying on microstructure evolution and properties
of metastable immiscible Cu-20Fe alloy was comprehensively investigated. Experimental …

High/medium-entropy alloys (H/MEAs) are regarded as a potentially viable alternative to
conventional metallic fibers for the production of ductile, high-strength fibers, to resolve the …

This work presents a constitutive model for eutectoid steels based on their two-phase
lamellar microstructure. The model accounts for the individual behaviour of both ferrite and …

A new double vacuum melting route (conventional second refining+ vacuum arc refining
[CSR+ VAR]) with 33% lower production cost than the traditional VIM+ VAR route has been …

In-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments were conducted on the pearlitic steel
sample with a carbon content of 0.74% by weight. Specimens were subjected to uniaxial …

Nanolamellar pearlitic steel with simultaneous improvement of strength and ductility was
achieved by low temperature annealing at 300° C in a high-carbon (0.92 wt.%) pearlitic …

Grain refinement is the most common strategy to improve the mechanical performance of
metals such as strength, wear resistance and fatigue. For the 2101 duplex stainless steel …

Obtaining ultrafine grains through severe plastic deformation is a highly effective strategy for
improving the strength of metallic materials. Due to the different deformation mechanisms …

Dislocation structures can be directly related to the fatigue properties of metals, such as
fatigue strength, including the fatigue limit and saturation stress. We present an indirect …

The outstanding combination of high strength and ductility of bridge cable steel wire is
attributed to the cold drawing process with intermediate equivalent strain. However, the …
