To ensure a smooth production, some stability indicators, including mean (μ), standard deviation (σ), standard deviation coefficient (V), as well as the probability (P) of variable values that fall within the scope of the standard were introduced to evaluate and to control the chemical composition and mechanical properties of seamless gas cylinder 30CrMo-M. Stability levels were defined according to the enterprise performance appraisal system. By using SPSS and MATLAB software, a regression equation was established that evolved chemical composition, tensile strength, yield strength and elongation. Tensile strength and yield strength are positive correlated with C, Si, Mn, and elongation is just the opposite. According to the stability indicators and regression equations, the entire mechanical properties meet the standard requirements by reducing Mn, Si content by 0.02%, while maintaining C content constant. According to the stability indicators, the best heat treatment system, quenching at 930 ~ 935°C for 40 minutes and tempering at 580 ~ 595 °C for 90 minutes, was established.

Annealed oxygen-free and tough-pitch copper samples have been processed by equalchannel angular pressing (ECAP) by route BC. The samples included 8 x 8 mm section pieces and a 40 mm diameter bar. Thermal stability was assessed based on the changes in the standard mechanical properties (conventional yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, proportional elongation and contraction) after annealing at different temperatures for 1 hour. Thermal stability of the same grade of material has been found to be different for different batches and to depend on the structural conditions of deformed material. The zone of thermal stability for copper of the two grades of interest does not depend on the material’s chemical composition.

Modern high-strength steels achieve their strength exclusively through the manufacturing process, as the chemical composition of these steels is very similar to the composition of standard-quality steels. Typically, hot-dip galvanizing is used to form a protective zinc layer on the steel parts of structures; nonetheless, the material is exposed to high temperatures during the process. With high-strength steels, this can lead to deterioration of the mechanical properties. This study aims to experimentally examine and evaluate the extent of deterioration of the mechanical properties of high-strength-steel members. The effect was studied on specimens made of three different types of steel with the yield strength ranging from 460 to 1250 MPa. For each type of steel, selected mechanical properties—yield strength, tensile strength, and hardness—were determined on specimens with and without hot-dip galvanization, and the obtained results were mutually compared. Our study shows a significant impact of the hot-dip galvanization process on the mechanical properties of some high-strength steels. With the studied types of steel, the yield strength decreased by up to 18%, the tensile strength by up to 13%, and the hardness by up to 55%.

An artificial neural network (ANN) model has been developed for the analysis and simulation of the correlation between the chemical composition and mechanical properties of high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel X70. The input parameters of the model consist of the base metal chemical composition (C, Si, Mn, the sum of Cr+Cu+Ni+Mo, the sum of Nb+Ti+V, carbon equivalent CEpcm) and the yield strength (YS). The outputs of the ANN model include the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of the test material. Scatter plots, correlation coefficient (R) and mean relative error (MRE) were used to assess the performance of the developed neural network. Interestingly, the model output is efficient to calculate the mechanical properties of high strength low alloy steels, especially the ultimate tensile strength as a function of chemical composition and yield strength of the used material. The obtained results are in a good agreement with experimental ones, with high correlation coefficient and low mean relative error. The predictions accuracy of the developed model also conforms to the results of mean paired T-test.

The major hurdle in melt-processing of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) nanocomposite lies on the high melt viscosity of the UHMWPE, which may contribute to poor dispersion and distribution of the nanofiller. In this study, UHMWPE/cellulose nanofiber (UHMWPE/CNF) bionanocomposites were prepared by two different blending methods: (i) melt blending at 150 °C in a triple screw kneading extruder, and (ii) non-melt blending by ethanol mixing at room temperature. Results showed that melt-processing of UHMWPE without CNF (MB-UHMWPE/0) exhibited an increment in yield strength and Young’s modulus by 15% and 25%, respectively, compared to the Neat-UHMWPE. Tensile strength was however reduced by almost half. Ethanol mixed sample without CNF (EM-UHMWPE/0) on the other hand showed slight decrement in all mechanical properties tested. At 0.5% CNF inclusion, the mechanical properties of melt-blended bionanocomposites (MB-UHMWPE/0.5) were improved as compared to Neat-UHMWPE. It was also found that the yield strength, elongation at break, Young’s modulus, toughness and crystallinity of MB-UHMWPE/0.5 were higher by 28%, 61%, 47%, 45% and 11%, respectively, as compared to the ethanol mixing sample (EM-UHMWPE/0.5). Despite the reduction in tensile strength of MB-UHMWPE/0.5, the value i.e., 28.4 ± 1.0 MPa surpassed the minimum requirement of standard specification for fabricated UHMWPE in surgical implant application. Overall, melt-blending processing is more suitable for the preparation of UHMWPE/CNF bionanocomposites as exhibited by their characteristics presented herein. A better mechanical interlocking between UHMWPE and CNF at high temperature mixing with kneading was evident through FE-SEM observation, explains the higher mechanical properties of MB-UHMWPE/0.5 as compared to EM-UHMWPE/0.5.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of the Mg88.5Zn5Y6.5-XREX (RE = Yb and Ce, X = 0, 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5) (wt.%) alloys were investigated in the present study. Mg88.5Zn5Y6.5 is composed of three phases, namely, α-Mg, long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases, and intermetallic compounds. The content of the LPSO phases decreased with the addition of Ce and Yb, and no LPSO phases were detected in Mg88.5Zn5Y2.0Yb4.5. The alloys containing the LPSO phases possessed a stratified microstructure and exhibited excellent mechanical properties. Mg88.5Zn5Y5.0Ce1.5 exhibited the highest creep resistance and mechanical strength at both room temperature and 200 °C, owing to its suitable microstructure and high thermal stability. The yield strength of Mg88.5Zn5Y5.0Ce1.5 at room temperature was 358 MPa. The ultimate tensile strength of Mg88.5Zn5Y5.0Ce1.5 at room temperature and 200 °C was 453 MPa and 360 MPa, respectively.

The test of austenitic stainless steel specimens with strain control mode of pre-strain was carried out. The range of pre-strain is 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% and 10% on austenitic stainless steel specimens, then tensile testing of these samples was done and their mechanical properties after pre-strain were gotten. The results show that the pre-strain has little effect on tensile strength, and enhances the yield strength more obviously. According to the experimental data, we get a relational expression of S30408 between the value of yield strength and pre-strain. We can obtain several expressions about different kinds of austenitic stainless steel by this way. It is convenient for designers to get the yield strength of austenitic stainless steel after pre-strain by the value of pre-strain and the above expression.

Warm rolling is one of the thermomechanical method has several advantages such as produces high mechanical properties, but does not decrease % elongation and toughness value because partial recrystallization phenomenon that produces micron-sized new grain. This paper reports the results of an investigation carried out on the effects of holding time annealing to mechanical properties Cu-Zn 70/30 alloy. These alloy after homogenization process and quenched in the air then heated to temperature of 300°C, later the heated copper samples are warm rolled at 25%, 30%, and 35% reduction, after that heated at temperature 300°C and held during 120 minutes. Then sample is experienced rewarm rolling with reduction 25%, 30%, and 35%. The results obtained showed that the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength are higher proportional with the increasing of % reduction, their values are 501,1 MPa; 599,3 MPa; later decrease to 546, 5 MPa and to yield strength are 441,8 MPa; 466,1 MPa; then decrease to 458,6 MPa. Moreover hardness value increase proportional with % reduction such as 154 HV; 162 HV; after that decrease to 160 HV While, % elongation decreases inversely proportional with % reduction namely 12,4%; 8,2%; later increase to 11,2 %. It is caused of the partial recrystallization phenomenon as evidenced by the presence micron-sized.AbstrakWarm rolling merupakan salah satu metode termomekanik yang mempunyai beberapa keuntungan yaitu salah satunya menghasilkan sifat mekanik yang tinggi, namun tidak mengurunkan nilai keuletan karena adanya fenomena rekristalisasi parsial yang menghasilkan butiran baru berbentuk micron. Paper ini menjelaskan tentang hasil penelitian berupa pengaruh persentase reduksi terhadap sifat mekanis paduan Cu-Zn 70/30. Paduan Cu-Zn 70/30 setelah dilakukan proses homogenisasi dan didinginkan di udara lalu dipanaskan ke suhu 300°C, kemudian masing-masing dilakukan warm rolling dengan persentase reduksi sebesar 25%, 30%, dan 35% kemudian ditahan di suhu 300°C dalam waktu 120 menit. Selanjutnya sampel dilakukan rewarm rolling dengan persentase reduksi sebesar 25%, 30%, dan 35%. Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan antara lain nilai kekuatan tarik (UTS dan YS) yang semakin tinggi sebanding dengan peningkatan % reduksi warm rolling yaitu masing-masing untuk nilai UTS sebesar 501,1 MPa; 599,3 MPa; lalu menurun menjadi 546,5 MPa serta untuk nilai kekuatan luluh sebesar 441,8 MPa; 466,1 MPa; lalu menurun menjadi 458,6 MPa. Selain itu, nilai kekerasan meningkat sebanding dengan peningkatan % reduksi warm rolling masing-masing sebesar 154 HV; 162 HV; lalu menurun menjadi 160 HV. Sedangkan persentase elongasi semakin menurun berbanding terbalik dengan peningkatan % reduksi masing-masing sebesar 12,4%; 8,2%; lalu meningkat menjadi 11,2%. Hal tersebut disebabkan karena adanya fenomena rekristalisasi parsial yang dibuktikan dengan kehadiran butir kecil berukuran mikron.Keywords : Cu-Zn 70/30 alloy, warm rolling, anneal, % reduction, mechanical properties

Abstract The strength of P92 steel (tensile strength, specified plastic elongation strength) will decrease after its hardness is reduced, ferrite and carbides forming the structure. Carbides of grain size 5-6 are precipitated in the grains and grain boundaries. The martensite lath shape has completely disappeared. M23C6 carbide coarsened obviously, with a maximum size of about 500nm; The Laves phase is also aggregated and coarsened, connecting in a chain shape with a maximum size of more than 500nm. Evolution of microstructure, namely the obvious coarsening of M23C6 carbides and the aggregation and connection of Laves phases in a chain shape, are the main causes for rapid decrease in the stability of the material substructure and evident decline in mechanical properties and hardness. In addition, the MX phase did not change significantly, hardly affecting the hardness reduction of P92 steel.

The microstructures, phase constitutions and mechanical properties of as-cast samples, extruded rods and plates of Mg-3.52Sn-3.32Al and Mg-6.54Sn-4.78Al alloys were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and mechanical testing. The results show that as-cast microstructure consists of α-Mg matrix, Mg2Sn and a few dispersed β-Mg17Al12 phases. The two as-cast alloys exhibit good tensile mechanical properties. After hot extrusion, dynamic recrystallization occurs. Average grain size reaches 6 μm ~ 8 μm for rods, and a lot of fine micro-scaled particles exist, resulting in significant enhancement of tensile mechanical properties. The extruded Mg-3.52Sn-3.32Al rod exhibits better comprehensive tensile mechanical property than AZ31B alloy, with tensile strength σb of 295 MPa, yield strength of 200 MPa and elongation of 21.5% at ambient temperature. The extruded Mg-6.54Sn-4.78Al rod exhibits equivalent comprehensive tensile mechanical properties with ZK60 alloy, achieving tensile strength of 355 MPa, yield strength of 275 MPa and elongation of 11% at ambient temperature. The extruded plates at ambient temperature performed a tensile strength of 270 MPa.
