In order to analyze the thermal deformation and dynamic recrystallization behavior of
18CrNiMo7-6 steel, the isothermal compression tests are carried out on Gleeble-3500 …

Understanding the effects of microstructural defects, which can have a high impact on
service life, is of great importance in the design of cyclically loaded components. For this, the …

Short-time procedures for determining the fatigue properties of materials can provide
significant improvements in cost efficiency and are therefore of great scientific and industrial …

From literature, it is well known that Cu precipitates in steels lead to an increase of hardness
and quasi-static strength. However, the relation between Cu precipitates and cyclic …

Cyclic deformation behavior and fatigue life of high-Mn TWIP steel with different surface
morphologies was investigated. Specimens with different surface morphologies, namely …

Cyclic nanoindentation allows characterizing the influence of single phases and their
interactions on fatigue mechanisms. Herein, a method for high cycle fatigue testing by …

The steel 18CrNiMo7‐6 (AISI 4317) is treated in three different crucibles based on carbon‐
bonded alumina. Non‐metallic inclusions in the steel are characterized by means of optical …

Cu precipitates in steels can lead to significant changes of mechanical behavior. However,
most investigations focus on the influence of these precipitates on hardness, whereas the …
