Surface texturing is one of the most efficient surface modification approaches for improving
the tribological performance of engineering materials. Several surface texturing techniques …

Laser shock peening (LSP) experiments were conducted on an AZ31B Mg alloy sheet. The
results show that the room-temperature stretch formability of Mg alloy sheet can be …

Twinning is an important mode in plastic deformation of hexagonal close-packed
magnesium (Mg) alloys that are promising lightweight structural metals. Recent studies …

The biaxial tension-torsion in-phase fatigue properties of the specimens taken from the
welded joint and the base material of an A588 steel train bogie were investigated …

20MnSi steel samples with different rare‐earth yttrium (Y) contents are prepared in the
laboratory. Microstructure analysis is performed using the methods of microscopy and …

Defects such as stretcher strain in drawing and fluting in v-bending result from the yield-point
phenomenon of annealed or aged metals. This phenomenon can be diminished by applying …

Despite extensive research, the question–what makes the fronts of plastic strain (eg Lüders
bands) propagate or remain still has not been solved yet. Therefore, the problem is acute for …

Herein, attempts are made to estimate the mechanical properties using microstructure‐
based finite element (FE) modeling and validate these results with the experimental results …

With increased efforts across the steel industry to produce steel in more economical ways,
interest in near net shape casting has increased. Although much has been reported on the …

In this paper, the influence of niobium content on strain amounts in various areas of Lüders
bands propagation was investigated. The tests were simultaneously performed by a static …
