Elastic Limit and Microplastic Response of Hardened Steels

AI summary Read the abstract

The elastic limit of tempered martensite-retained austenite microstructures decreases with increasing retained austenite content, and austenite distribution refinement raises the elastic limit following a Hall-Petch relationship. These microplastic response insights guide heat treatment optimization for hardened steel components requiring precise dimensional stability under load.

Observations on the Nonlinear Unloading Behavior of Advanced High Strength Steels

AI summary Read the abstract

A study comparing unloading behavior in three steel grades found that steels hardening via phase transformation or deformation twinning exhibit less microplastic strain during unloading than conventional steels. These findings inform the design of high-strength materials but are unrelated to environmental microplastic pollution or health impacts.
