  2. 2. Plastic Deformation of Duplex Stainless Steel

    Author : Magnus Nyström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stainless steel; microstructure; plastic zones; impact toughness; anisotropy; prestraining; annealing; fractography; fatigue;

    Abstract : Duplex austenitic/ferritic stainless steels are increasingly used as an alternative to conventional austenitic grades. Main advantages of the duplex grades are good resistance to corrosion cracking and corrosion fatigue in environments that contain chloride. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dynamic neck formation in elastic-plastic tensile bars

    Author : Kristina Nilsson; Mekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamic loading; necking; inertia; localization zones; numerical simulation; finite elements; non-linear;

    Abstract : The time development of neck formation in ductile elastic-plastic bars is analyzed numerically in order to obtain a qualitative description of the features of dynamic neck localization under impact conditions. The full time history is visualized using contour plots of the time development of a strain rate parameter. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microstructure and plastic deformation of textured CVD alumina coatings

    Author : Siamak Shoja; 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; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; α-Al2O3; Texture; Coatings; TKD; Plastic deformation; Deformation mechanisms; Electron microscopy; CVD;

    Abstract : It is known that the wear performance of α-alumina coatings produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is significantly influenced by the type and degree of texture. However, the main reasons behind this behavior are not fully understood. This thesis contains studies of two related topics for increasing the understanding of α-alumina coatings. READ MORE

  5. 5. Microstructure and wear mechanisms of textured CVD alumina and titanium carbonitride coatings

    Author : Siamak Shoja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Plastic deformation; Texture; TKD; Electron microscopy; Coatings; CVD; TiCN; α-alumina; Wear mechanisms;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to find the reasons behind how the wear performance of hard coatings produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is influenced by their texture, as this is today not fully known. Therefore, differently textured coatings were synthesized, and subsequently analyzed both before and after specially designed machining tests. READ MORE
