As a different step from conventional heat treatment, cryogenic treatment played a very
important role in improving the microstructure and properties of metals. The effect …

The durability of concrete structures can effectively be enhanced by using stainless steel
rather than ordinary steel reinforcements under harsh service conditions. Because the basic …

The seismic performance of seven precast post-tensioned segmental (PPS) bridge piers is
investigated by quasi-static tests in this work. Five piers are reinforced by stainless energy …

Acoustic emission (AE) is widely used for identifying source mechanisms and the
deformation stage of steel material. The effectiveness of this non-destructive monitoring …

The correct determination of fracture toughness is dependent on the accurate measurement
of the point of crack initiation. In this research work, the AE technique is used to accurately …

The class of low-carbon, high-alloy CrMnNi steels exhibits outstanding mechanical
properties with respect to high strength and ductility due to either transformation-induced …

The present study aims to investigate the evolution of microstructure of 304 austenitic
stainless steel (SS) due to reversion annealing of cold deformed samples under different …

Acoustic emission (AE) and infrared thermography technique (IRT) have been used to study
the tensile behavior of AISI type 316 stainless steel. Strain rates of tensile testing were …

In the present study, the temperature dependence of microstructure and damage evolution
in the medium Mn steel was investigated by tensile testing and microstructure examinations …

Clinching is the manufacturing process of joining two or more metal sheets under high
plastic deformation by form and force closure without thermal support and auxiliary parts …
