By using physical thermal simulation technology, combined with metallographic analysis, tensile tests, impact and hardness tests, effects of heating temperature and cooling speed on microstructure and mechanical properties of X80 induction heating bends were investigated. The results show that as the heating temperature rises, TS of X80 induction heating bends increases gradually. However, when the heating temperature rises above 1100°C, plasticity and toughness of the bends begin to decrease, and grain growth tends to be obvious. When the heating temperature is 1050°C, X80 induction heating bends have a good strength and toughness. As the cooling rate increases, strength and toughness of X80 bends are improved considerably. In the cooling rate range between 20°C/s and 30°C/s, the microstructure of X80 bends is mainly composed of polygonal ferrite and granular bainite. Due to the very high dislocation density inside granular bainite and the fine and dispersed M-A constituents, X80 induction heating bends have a very good strength and toughness.

Focusing on the need of actual production, physical analogue experiments were done on the 400MPa ultra fine grained steel under different welding heat circulations. The experiment results showed that grains growing up and performance dropping was inevitable, the coarsening temperature range was 1000~1200 ; where the heating temperature was 800 in the Heat Affected Zone, the soften was the most obvious, but when the cooling rate t8/5<10s, the soften disappeared; speeding up the cooling rate could improve the microstructure of the Heat-affected Zone effectively and made the mechanical properties of the joint better than that of the base metal.

The effects of heating rate, heating temperature and cooling rate on the microstructures and mechanical properties of four pipeline steels for high frequency electric resistance welded pipe have been studied by using a Gleeble-3500 thermo-mechanical simulator. The results show that the heating rates have an effect on austenizing phase transformation temperature (Ac1 and Ac3). It shows that there is a linear relationship between heating rate and austennizing temperature (Ac1 and Ac3) in the range of tested heating rate. With the heating temperature increasing, the strength property goes up, on the contrary, the strength begins to go down when the heating temperature exceeds 900 °C, then a lowest strength point appears on 925 °C in the testing scope. As the further increase of the heating temperature, the strength goes up again. Moreover, the cooling rate has a great effect on the microstructure and the mechanical properties. With the decrease of cooling rate, the strength decrease significantly, meanwhile, the microstructure becomes coarse, even the banded structure can be found. As the conclusion, the optimum heating temperature is 950 °C, and cooling rate is from 8.5 to 13 °C/s.

For fuel savings as well as energy and resource requirement, high strength low alloy steels (HSLA) are of particular interest to automobile industry because of the potential weight reduction which can be achieved by using thinner section of these steels to carry the same load and thus to improve the fuel mileage. Dual phase treatment has been utilized to obtain superior strength and ductility combinations compared to the HSLA of identical composition. Recently, cooling rate following heat treatment was found to be important to the tensile properties of the dual phase steels. In this paper, we report the results of the investigation of cooling rate on the microstructures and mechanical properties of several vanadium HSLA steels.The steels with composition (in weight percent) listed below were supplied by China Steel Corporation: 1. low V steel (0.11C, 0.65Si, 1.63Mn, 0.015P, 0.008S, 0.084Aℓ, 0.004V), 2. 0.059V steel (0.13C, 0.62S1, 1.59Mn, 0.012P, 0.008S, 0.065Aℓ, 0.059V), 3. 0.10V steel (0.11C, 0.58Si, 1.58Mn, 0.017P, 0.008S, 0.068Aℓ, 0.10V).

Bending behavior occurs in the hot press forming process, resulting in many cases of failure during forming. To address the problem of cracking and improve the formability and mechanical properties of boron steel sheets in the bending process, an experiment has been carried out by using a spring compound bending die. Also, a comparison has been made between the traditional U-bending die and the spring compound bending die with regard to formability. The influence of the parameters for hot press forming such as the heating temperature, punch speed, and die radii on the mechanical properties and microstructure was analyzed by tension testing and metallographic observations.

Mechanical properties of non-quenched prehardened (NQP) steel air cooled and sand cooled after forged were tested and their microstructure was investigated by optical microscopy and transmission electronic microscopy(TEM). The results show that mechanical properties of the NQP steel are similar at both cooling conditions, and their microstructure is bainite, whose fine structure is main bainite ferrite laths, retained austenite films, retained austenite islands and their transformation products. Bainite ferrite laths of the NQP steel air cooled are narrower than that sand cooled, while more retained austenite islands exist in latter.

This paper makes an experimental study of mechanical properties of high-strength pumpcrete under fire, and the effects of heating rate, heating temperature and cooling mode on the residual compressive strength(RCS) of high-strength pumpcrete are investigated. The results show that under air cooling, the strength deterioration speed of high-strength concrete after high temperature increases with the increase of concrete strength grade. Also, the higher heating temperature is, the lower residual compressive strength value is. At the same heating rate (10°C/min), the residual compressive strength of C45 concrete after water cooling is a little higher than that after air cooling; but the test results are just the opposite for C55 and C65 concrete. The strength deterioration speed of high-strength concrete after high temperature increases with the increase of heating rate, but not in proportion. And when the heating temperature rises up between 200°C and 500°C, heating rate has the most remarkable effect on the residual compressive strength of concrete. These test results provide scientific proofs for further evaluation and analysis of mechanical properties of reinforced-concrete after exposure to high temperatures.
