    Metallurgical Fundamentals of TMP
    Oral Presentation

    There is a continuing demand to develop steel with improved mechanical properties and to lower production cost. Microalloyed or high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels are widely used in a variety of applications due to a favorable combination of cost and mechanical properties. The proper design of steel alloys for a multitude of applications in which grain size refinement is necessary to...

    Thermomechanical controlled processing (TMCP) is critical for the production of state-of-the-art hot-rolled microalloyed low-carbon steels. The precise control of recrystallization and austenite grain size distribution under industrial TMCP is essential to optimize rolling schedules and product consistency.
    The present study includes the characterization of austenite formation and grain...

    Laser ultrasound is a non-contact method that enables continuous monitoring of elastic properties in steel samples during thermal processing. Compared with conventional metallographic techniques, it offers substantially higher sample throughput and therefore faster evaluation of relevant process parameters. In this work, we present an approach for in situ estimation of the recrystallization...

    Niobium being a strong carbide former has the propensity of significantly contributing to strength increase by dispersing copious ultra-fine particles in the iron matrix. According to the well-known Ashby-Orowan theory, a homogeneous particle dispersion with closest inter-particle spacing results in the highest strength contribution. From that point of view, it is important to understand how...

    Metallurgical Fundamentals of TMP
    Oral Presentation

    It is the nature of microalloying elements, primarily Ti, Nb, and V, to form stable carbide and nitride compounds with interstitial carbon and nitrogen present in the steel matrix. The resulting fine-sized compound particles have the potency to retard or prevent phenomena such as recovery, recrystallization and grain growth. The controlled microalloy precipitation during thermomechanical...

    Metallurgical Fundamentals of TMP
    Oral Presentation

    Thermomechanical processing, particularly hot compression, is widely used to tailor the microstructural and mechanical properties of aluminium alloys. Hot compression behaviour is commonly interpreted through true stress–true strain curves and microstructural evolution, especially grain refinement and orientation relationships. The nature of the true stress–true strain response is strongly...

    The hot deformation and static softening behavior of a commercial medium-carbon Mo–Cr–V–Nb–Ti–B steel used in seamless tube applications was characterized using single-hit and double-hit compression tests on a Gleeble 3500 thermomechanical simulator. Single-hit tests were conducted at deformation temperatures from 900°C to 1200°C, strain rates of 1, 5, and 10 s⁻¹, to a true strain of 0.5,...
