Cold-drawn pearlitic steel wires have attracted considerable interest because of their
excellent combination of strength and ductility. The physical interpretation of these …

We review microstructures and properties of metal matrix composites produced by severe
plastic deformation of multiphase alloys. Typical processings are wire drawing, ball milling …

Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) of prestressing steel is a major technological problem in
damage tolerance and structural integrity of structures in harsh environments, it being …

The obtained phenomenological model of hardening G3Si1 and Sb08-G2S low-carbon
welding wire during multistage drawing establishes the dependence of the hardening curve …

First-principles calculation is performed to systematically investigate the effects of alloying
elements (Cr, Mo, Ni, Pb, and Bi) on stability, cohesion strength, Young's modulus, and …

Induction hardening is a relatively rapid heat treatment method to increase mechanical
properties of steel components. However, results from FE-simulation of the induction …

The development of phase stress and grain-orientation-dependent stress under uniaxial
compression was investigated in a duplex stainless steel consisting of austenite and ferrite …

Three-dimensional X-ray diffraction (3DXRD) has been used to measure, in-situ, the
evolution of $\sim 1800$ grains in a single phase low carbon ferritic steel sample during …

This paper presents an experimental analysis and a numerical simulation of the mechanical
behaviour experienced by a steel rod during multiple-step wire cold-drawing processes. To …

Tungsten wires are commonly used in the lighting industry as filaments for lamps. During the
drawing process, the inhomogeneous deformation imparted by the drawing die causes …
