  1. 1. Fatigue Anisotropy in Forged Components

    Author : Cornelius Temmel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inclusion Cluster; Low Sulfur; Machinability; Inclusion; Manganese Sulfide; Quenching Crack; Forging; Isotropic Quality; Steel; Anisotropy;

    Abstract : Ever-growing requirements on combustion engine efficiency of motor vehicles demand increasing service loads in powertrain components. Optimization of component material is therefore inevitable. A major detriment with many forged transmission components is their anisotropic mechanical behavior, not least during cyclic loading.

  2. 2. Estimating inclusion content in high performance steels

    Author : Jens Ekengren; Jens Bergström; Christer Burman; Hans Nordberg; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials Engineering; Materialteknik;

    Abstract : Non-metallic inclusions in steel pose a major problem for the fatigue resistance, especially regarding fatigue at very long lives corresponding to low cyclic stress levels, as well as being detrimental to material toughness and polishability.The largest inclusions are quite rare, which makes conventional detection methods timeconsuming if reliable results are to be obtained.

  3. 3. Three Dimensional Determinations of Inclusions in Ferroalloys and Steel Samples

    Author : Yanyan Bi; Andrey Karasev; Chris Pistorius; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Three dimensional; Ferroalloy; Inclusion; Spinel inclusion; T hermodynamic calculation; REM clusters; Formation mechanism; Statistical analysis; Maximum size;

    Abstract : As the requirements on material properties increase, there has been a demand on an additional knowledge on the effect of impurities in the ferroalloyson the steel cleanness. Thus, the number, morphology, size and composition of inclusions in sixdifferent ferroalloys (FeTi, FeNb, FeSi,SiMn, LC and HC FeCr) were investigatedin this study. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modeling the behavior of inclusions in plastic deformation of steels

    Author : Chunhui Luo; KTH; []
    Keywords : Inclusion; Steel; Plastic deformation; Void; Rolling; Forging; Finite element; Mesomechanical approach;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis presents a modeling method fordemonstrating the behavior of inclusions and their surroundingmatrix during plastic deformation of steels.Inclusions are inescapable components of all steels. READ MORE

  5. 5. Influence of microstructure on fatigue and ductility properties of tool steels

    Author : Mats Randelius; Rolf Sandström; Jens Bergström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tool steels; fatigue; ductility; carbides; carbide cluster; inclusion; size distribution; modelling; FEM; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : Fatigue and ductility properties in various tool steels, produced by powder metallurgy, spray forming or conventionally ingot casting, have been analysed experimentally and successfully compared to developed models. The models are able to predict the fatigue limit and cause for fatigue fracture, and strain- and stress-development until fracture during the ductile fracture process respectively. READ MORE
