  1. 1. Cracking during Continuous Casting of Steels : Analysis tools and procedures to identify their causes on microalloyed steel slabs

    Author : Rosa Maria Pineda Huitron; Esa Vuorinen; Pavel Ernesto Ramí­rez López; Maria Begoña Santillana; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transverse corner cracks; Continuous Casting; Microalloyes steels; Secondary cooling; Cooling curves; Crack susceptibility; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Transverse corner cracks are one of the most common but complex defects formed in microalloyed steels during continuous casting (CC). Such cracks are detrimental because it leads to a loss in productivity with a great impact on environment, energy and economics for several steel making companies all over the world. READ MORE

  2. 2. Precipitation in Advanced Stainless Steels

    Author : Niklas Holländer Pettersson; Annika Borgenstam; Sten Wessman; Joacim Hagström; Jacques Charles; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : Advanced stainless steels often suffer from complex precipitation behaviour due to the high levels of alloying elements needed to obtain their attractive properties. This demands a correct handling of the material to avoid formation of harmful phases during production, manufacturing and service. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling the Microstructural Evolution during Hot Deformation of Microalloyed Steels

    Author : Linda Bäcke; Stefan Jonsson; Eric J. Palmiere; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modeling; austenite; microalloyed steels; hot deformation; microstructure evolution; static recrystallization; dynamic recrystallization; metadynamic recrystallization<; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract :   This thesis contains the development of a physically-based model describing the microstructural evolution during hot deformation of microalloyed steels. The work is mainly focused on the recrystallization kinetics. During hot rolling, the repeated deformation and recrystallization provides progressively refined recrystallized grains. READ MORE

  4. 4. Influence of combined thermal and mechanical loadings on pearlitic steel microstructure in railway wheels and rails

    Author : Dimitrios Nikas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low cycle fatigue LCF ; Wheel steels; Hardness; TEM; Thermal effects; EBSD; Rail steels; Pearlite; Multiaxial fatigue; Spheroidisation; Materials Science;

    Abstract : One of the most important aspects in railway operation is the interaction between rail and wheel. The contact patch between these two components is around the size of a small coin, and since high loads act on this small area, stresses will give rise to wear and damage in both components.

  5. 5. Localized corrosion of stainless steels in chlorine dioxide bleach filtrate solutions

    Author : Gustaf Bäck; KTH; []
    Keywords : stainless steels; bleaching; chlorine dioxide; ClO2; localized corrosion; weld oxides; redox potential; potentiostatic polarization; scanning Kelvin probe;

    Abstract : Stainless steels are extensively used in pulp bleach plantsbecause of their high corrosion resistance. However, alsostainless steels might suffer from corrosion and in bleachplants this is a problem. READ MORE
