Dynamic Performance Evaluation of Two-axis Lathes

With the increasing demand for extended service life and increased precision and accuracy of precision mechanics across various industries, machine tool manufacturers face the challenge of increasing the performance of their machines. To achieve this goal, the performance of the machines must be evaluated, points of improvement must be...

The role of the austenite grain size in the martensitic transformation in low carbon steels

There is sufficient experimental evidence to propose that the formation kinetics of athermal martensite directly depends on the austenite grain structure from which the martensite forms. Yet, this dependence is frequently ignored. The present study investigates the role of the prior austenite grain size (PAGS) in the martensitic...

Unraveling the Role of Carbon on the Strengthening Mechanisms of Low Mn-Si Martensitic Steels

The role of carbon in the strengthening mechanisms of martensitic steels has been studied for decades. However, uncertainties still exist regarding how the distribution of carbon to various locations inside martensite contributes to the development of its observed microstructure and high strength. The strengthening mechanisms depend on carbon...
