This study presents the development of an eco-efficient laboratory-scale production route for longsteel products, focusing on sustainable casting and hot deformation processes. Conventionalcasting using 80x80 mm molds and gravity filling generated significant shrinkage defects, leadingto scrap generation, repeated melting, and reduced material effi...

Monitoring cavitation erosion in materials is crucial for their performance in environmentscharacterized by severe fluid flow conditions. Materials such as metals, ceramics, and composites,commonly used in these applications, must possess specific mechanical properties to effectivelyresist cavitation erosion. Additionally, various environmental fac...

The translational symmetry of the distribution of atoms (ions) of the charge carriers (electrons or holes) system is broken by sputtering (doping) due to the existence of two boundary surfaces. This is a model of high-temperature superconductors in which the observed symmetry breaking orthogonal to the CuO plane is treated as a perturbation. Single...

Metallic materials in granular packings show different electrical properties from their bulk counterparts. In this paper, we investigate the temporal evolution of the electrical conductivity of granular metals. We use metallic beads arranged in different one-, two- and three-dimensional ensembles through which different constant currents are inject...

This study investigated the mechanical properties of a series of Fe-Cr-Mn (Mo)-N alloys. The chromium content ranged from 16 to 18 mass %. The test alloys were produced by adding nitrided ferroalloys during melting in an induction furnace. Test specimens of each alloy were prepared for mechanical testing and microstructural observation. Tensile str...

Steel 17-7PH is austenitic-martensitic steel with high strength, hardness, and resistance to creep, and corrosion. It is designed for aerospace components, but can also be used for other applications that require high strength and corrosion resistance, as well as leaf springs for operation at temperatures up to 316 °C. It can be used in a solut...

Modern steel production cannot be imagined without manganese, because almost all steels contain manganese.In this paper, we present the impact of manganese on the tensile strength values of high-carbon steel. This paper presents an improvement in the quality of wire rolling with control of manganese content in steel and the value of C-equivalent, i...

This paper describes the difference in the creep rate of pre-strained and no pre-strained samples of superalloy N07080. The primary strengthening mechanism of this superalloy is based on the precipitation of fine and coherent particles of the intermetallic γ' phase Ni3(Al,Ti) that ensure good creep resistance. In the case of additional streng...

The production of concrete structural steel using controlled cooling with Tempcore technology enables the production of high-strength steel with improved adhesion to concrete while ensuring homogeneous properties for the construction of buildings, bridges, highways, and other construction facilities in any geographical environment. Concrete reinfor...

Shape memory alloys are of great commercial importance from biomedical applications to smart materials. The electrochemical behavior of Cu-Al-Zn alloy in phosphate buffer without and in the presence of amino acid was investigated. Electrochemical researches were performed in a traditional three-electrode system by means of the Tafel extrapolation m...
