We investigated punching properties (crack in punched surface and hole expansion ratio) of high tensile strength steel sheets with and without center segregation. High strength steel sheets were heat-treated to reduce center segregation. Tensile strength, shear surface ratio, depth of rollover and burr height were measured on heat-treated steel sheets to confirm the effect of heat-treatment on strength. The EPMA analysis showed that the center segregation of Mn was reduced by the diffusion during heat-treatment. Crack-formation frequency and hole expansion ratio were also measured. As a result, the center segregation of Mn in high tensile strength steel sheets decreased by the heat-treatment (600 oC for 100 h) with maintaining the tensile strength, the depth of rollover and the burr height. The crack-formation frequency of the steel sheets decreased through heat-treatments.

This paper studies the microstructure of drawn gold wires to equivalent strain of 10 and to equivalent strain of 8.5 then heat-treated. The texture of gold wire drawn to strain of 10 is mainly composed of <100> and <111> fibers. Tensile strength of the gold wire increases with <111> fiber fraction, while the grain size does not appear to affect the tensile property. With an exception at heat treatment at 600oC, the texture of gold wire drawn the strain of 8.5 is replaced with <100> fiber component by heat treatment process at 400~700oC. Heat treatment at 600oC produces <110> fiber or <112> fiber, depending upon annealing time.

PurposeThe aims of this study is to analyze failure of two types of high‐strength low‐alloy (HSLA) steels which are used in wheel bolts 10.9 grade, boron steel and chromium‐molybdenum steel, before and after heat treatment.Design/methodology/approachThe optimum heat treatment to obtain the best tensile behavior was determined and Charpy impact and Rockwell hardness tests were performed on the two steel types before and after the optimum heat treating.FindingsFractographic studies show a ductile fracture for heat‐treated boron steel while indicate a semi‐brittle fracture for heat‐treated chromium‐molybdenum steel. Formation of a small boron carbide amount during heat treating of boron steel results in increment the bolt's tensile strength while the ductility did not changed significantly. In the other hand, formation of chromium and molybdenum carbides during heat treating of chromium‐molybdenum steel increased the bolt's tensile strength with a considerable reduction in the final ductility.Originality/valueThis paper evaluates failure analysis of HSLA wheel bolt steels and compares their microstructure before and after the loading regime.

Magnesium alloys are the very progressive materials whereon is due to improve their end-use properties. Especially, wrought Mg alloys attract attention since they have more advantageous mechanical properties than cast Mg alloys. Investigations were carried out the effects of heat treatment on tensile strength and microstructure of AZ61A magnesium alloy. The AZ61A Mg alloy is solution heat treated at the temperature of 6500F (343°C) for various soaking timing such as 120 min, 240 min and 360 minutes and allowed it cool slowly in the furnace itself. Magnesium alloys usually are heat treated either to improve mechanical properties or as means of conditioning for specific fabrication operations. Special attention had been focused on the analysis of mutual relations existing between the deformation conditions, microstructural parameters, grain size and the achieved mechanical properties. The result after the solution heat treatment, showed remarkably improved hardness, tensile strength and yield strength. It would be appropriate for a forming process namely isostatic forming process.
