The paper describes the microstructural constituents in a industrially processed Nb-
microalloyed pipeline steel having yield strength of∼ 620MPa. The microstructure of base …

Press-hardened steel (PHS) is widely used in manufacturing automobile parts and is
sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement (HE). A novel 0.04 Nb-0.04 V (wt%) PHS (22MnB5NbV) …

The isothermal precipitation kinetics of carbides in both strain-free and strained austenite (γ)
of a microalloyed steel were quantitatively investigated through the electrical resistivity and …

Compact strip production (CSP) technology is an important upcoming processing route to
produce low cost microalloyed high strength pipeline steels that meet the API standards. Hot …

Despite a large number of studies relevant to MX (M= Ti, V, Nb; X= C, N) precipitation in
microalloyed steels, the evolution rules of the precipitate morphology remain unclear. In this …

Strain-induced precipitation kinetics and precipitates' characteristics in a Ti microalloyed
steel subjected to a two-stage controlled rolling process, simulating rough and finish rolling …

Rebar is the most important material in large-scale engineering structures, and its fine
structure determines the strength and seismic resistance of rebar. The objective of this study …
