Experimental fretting fatigue lives exhibit large degree of scatter. One of the aspects behind
this is the microstructural inhomogeneity which affects the stresses in the material. Variance …

Linepipe steels fabricated using thermo-mechanically controlled processes exhibit
microstructural inhomogeneity and a characteristic texture; therefore, they often lead to …

Yield strength and yield-point (YP) phenomenon are regarded as crucial properties to be
assured in practical applications such as line-pipe forming. In this work, the impacts of …

Understanding deformation inhomogeneity and the formation mechanism of crack are
crucial for fully exploiting the potential of ultra-high strength steel (UHSS). In this paper, the …

Abstract Cr–Ni–Mo–V steels usually exhibit excellent performance under high-temperature
friction and wear conditions. However, after hot rolling with a certain amount of deformation …

In the materials processing industry regarding bainitic steels. This is due to their exceptional
mechanical properties, which makes them highly desirable. To ensure their widespread …

The poor formability of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy at room temperature necessitates research
into the hot forming process. Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) model was used to …
