Stone chisels produced by blacksmiths which are made using leaf spring steel are often too brittle or fragile so that when they are used, they often occur in the form of cracks and breaks. This study aims to determine the appropriate hardness level for stone chisels. The process is carried out by comparing the hardness level of stone chisels that have been used but still in good condition and those that have been damaged. Broken stone chisels have a high adequate hardness compared to good stone chisels so that damaged stone chisels can be reconditioned to get the right rock chisel hardness. Heat treatment is given to damaged stone chisels to improve the hardness level by normalizing the process to restore the initial mechanical properties of the steel and increasing the hardness of the chisel by heating the steel and then quenching it using water cooling media. Based on the experimental process carried out that the hardness level of a good stone chisel is between 228 HB to 320 HB by heating the duan spring steel to a temperature of 780ºC with a hold time of 10 minutes then cooling it quickly using water and stone chisels can break when it is used because it has a very high hardness.

The use of cooling media in post welding process will affect the tensile strength of a material. This study aims to determine how much the influence of using cooling media in post welding and which cooling media is appropriate to use. The process is done by comparing the tensile strength of each cooling media, namely the cooling media of water, air, and coolant. The use of cooling media is carried out after the welding process, until the material that is ready to be welded reaches room temperature. Based on the experiments that have been conducted, the use of post-welding cooling media affects the tensile strength of medium carbon steel with the highest effect on the water cooling media, then the coolant media, and the lowest is the air cooling media. Therefore, the choice of the use of cooling media significantly affects the tensile strength of medium carbon steel in the post-welding process.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm characterized by expression of both mela-nocytic and smooth muscle markers. Only 10 primary malignant lung PEComas have been reported up to date. We report a 59-year-old male who presented with a lung neoplasm, found during the routine X-ray examination. Preoperative CT-scan revealed the 3,5-cm-sized mass, located at the border of the upper, middle and lower lobes of the right lung. Patient underwent a thoracotomy, resection of the upper, middle and lower lobes of the right lung accompanied with mediastinal lymphadenectomy. After surgery, chylothorax was revealed. Conservative treatment was unsuccessful, so we performed laparoscopic clipping of the thoracic lymph duct. Patient was dismissed from hospital on the 10-th day after the second operation in good condition. In this report, we intend to increase the limited knowledge relating to natural history and optimal treatment of such a rare condition as a primary malignant lung PEComa.

Postoperative complications after brain tumor surgery occur occasionally and it is important for clinicians to know how to properly manage each complication. Here, we described a rare case of late-onset, subdural fluid collection localized at the resection cavity that caused motor weakness after convexity meningioma resection, requiring differentiation from an abscess, to help clinicians determine treatment strategies. A 58-year-old right-handed female was admitted to the hospital with a headache and posterior neck pain. Brain computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance (MR) images showed a homogeneously enhanced, calcified, and multi-lobulated mass adjacent to the right motor strip without perilesional edema. The patient underwent surgery without incident or residual deficit and was discharged from the hospital in good condition. Six weeks after surgery, the patient complained of left arm monoparesis without infection-related symptoms. Brain imaging studies showed a localized fluid collection in the resection cavity with an enhanced margin and perilesional edema. Diffusion restriction was not detected. After three months of conservative treatment without surgery or antibiotics, she recovered from the neurologic deficits, and brain imaging studies showed the spontaneous regression of the fluid collection and perilesional edema. Late-onset, localized fluid collection at the resection cavity, which is similar to an abscess, could occur three to eight weeks after meningioma resection. When there are predisposing factors, including blood components and hemostatic materials in the surgical cavity, it is important for clinicians to understand this type of complication and choose conservative management as a feasible strategy.

Laser surface hardening of most of the industrial components require depth of surface modification in the range of 100–150 micron. Conventional laser surface hardening uses laser as a heat source to modify a particular area of the surface without melting in an inert gas environment. However, the hardened profile in this case shows peak hardness value at a certain depth from the top surface. Also, hardening the top surface to get relatively much higher hardness near the top surface in case of thin sheets becomes difficult due to accumulation of heat below the surface of the specimen which in turn lowers the cooling rate. Hence, self-quenching becomes inadequate. In the present study, an in-house fabricated laser processing head with coaxial water nozzle has been used to flow a laminar water-jet during the laser surface hardening process to induce forced convection at the top surface. Thus, heat gets carried away by the water-jet from the top surface and by the water from the bottom surface as well. Results show that with judicious selection of process parameters, it is possible to get higher hardness (800 HV) to that of conventional laser surface hardening (500 HV) at the top surface using this process. Present process can be used for those cases where high hardness values are required near the top surface specially for thin sheets and thermally sensitive materials.

51CrV4 spring steel is widely used in heavy duty dump trucks ascribing to its superior mechanical properties. The fatigue life and strength of dump trucks are the main performance indicators that must be considered in the manufacturing process. Cryogenic treatment (CT) can improve the main performance of materials which has been proved by recently research. The effect of cryogenic treatment CT on the axial tensile fatigue strength of 51CrV4 spring steel was studied in this paper. The results showed that the axial tension-tension fatigue life of 51CrV4 spring steel after CT was significantly higher than conventional heat treatment (CHT) samples. The microstructure of 51CrV4 leaf spring material is mainly acicular bainite and thin strip martensite after CT. Compared with CHT, CT makes the microstructure of the material more compact. The introduction of cryogenic treatment (CT) before tempering makes the Ca element in the material aggregate, and the micro amount of Ca has the function of deoxidizing and desulphurizing and improving the morphology of sulfide, thus enhancing the fatigue life of the material.

Shot peening is a surface treatment that improves the performance of engineering components. In conventional shot peening, the medium consists of small spheres, which are usually made of high-carbon cast steel; the diameter of the spheres is in the range from 0.3 to 1.2mm. More recently, however, a new type of microshot has been developed to enhance the peening effect. The diameter of the spheres in the new medium is in the range from 0.02 to 0.15mm. In the present study, the effect of microshot peening on the surface characteristics of spring steel was investigated. The injection method of the microshot was of the compressed air type. The microshots of 0.1mm diameter were high-carbon cast steel and cemented carbide, and the workpiece used was the commercially spring steel JIS-SUP10. The surface roughness, hardness and compressive residual stress of the peened workpieces were measured. The surface layer of the workpieces was sufficiently deformed by microshot peening. A high hardness or residual stress was observed near the surface. The use of hard microshots such as cemented carbide was found to cause a significantly enhanced peening effect for spring steel.
