This document summarizes a research article from the International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Technology that studied the microstructure and mechanical properties of mild steel-copper joints created through friction welding. Key findings include:
1) Hardness tests found the weld interface had higher hardness than the base metals, with mild steel hardness increasing towards the heat affected zone and copper increasing slightly at the interface.
2) Tensile testing showed welded joints had lower strength than the base metals, failing in the reaction layer formed at the copper side near the interface.
3) Microstructural analysis found that at high rotational speeds, surface irregularities were smoothed and full bonding occurred at the interface, while low speeds allowed imp
Proper heat treatment of steels is one of the most important factors in determining how they will
perform in service. Engineering materials, mostly steel, are heat treated under controlled sequence of
heating and cooling to alter their physical and mechanical properties to meet desired engineering
applications. In this study we have chosen AISI 1020 steel as for our research work and we have tried to
find out the mechanical properties (hardness) and micro structural properties (martensite formation,
carbon self-locking region) by means of appropriate heat treatment process (annealing, normalizing &
hardening). Here the steel specimens were heat treated in a furnace at different temperature levels and
soaking time; and then cooled in various media (air, ash, water). After that the hardness of the specimens
were rechecked for the comparison with previous data and the microstructures of the specimens were
examined using metallurgical microscope equipped with camera. These results showed that the hardness
of AISI 1020 steel can be changed and improved by different heat treatments for a particular application.
From the microstructures we have found that the annealed specimens with mainly ferrite structure give the
lowest hardness value and highest ductility while hardened specimens which comprise martensite give
the highest hardness value and lowest ductility. On the other hand, normalized specimens have given the
moderate hardness and ductility comparing with hardened and annealed specimens

Development of dual phase steel and determination its of mechanical propertiesIAEME Publication
In this paper, the development of dual phase steel from low carbon steel and mechanical
properties have been studies. Dual phase steel is developed by intercritical annealing in order to
improve the hardness and impact toughness. Low carbon steel of 0.21% carbon content is first
intercritically heated in furnace and then rapid cooling in water is done to obtain the martensitic
steels. Different samples of DP steels are prepared by the intercritical annealing process temperature
ranging from740˚C to 840˚C. The heating temperature and different time of heating of the steel is
used to make different percentage of Maternsite steel. Dual phase steel so obtained is now tested and
properties of the DP steel are evaluated. Hardness, charpy, microstructure test for each specimen is
conducted to compare its hardness and toughness with low carbon steel. The mechanical properties
of heat treated and non heat treated specimens are obtained and compared. The result indicates that
the specimen hardness and toughness are proportional to amount of martensite and amount of
martensite depends on intercritical annealing temperature.

Some mechanical properties and microstructural analysis were conducted on shielded
metal arc weldments of low carbon steels in some simulated environments. Specimens were prepared
and subjected to welding and continuous cooling at the same time at various positions. Results obtained
for impact strength using Charpy impact testing machine showed that impact strength of water cooled
samples were higher compared to salty water cooled samples. This is due to the increased formation of
martensitic structure and finer pearlite grains. The microstructure of the samples was studied using
photographic visual metallurgical microscope. For low cooling rate as in the air cooled sample, the
austenite was observed to transform into ferrite and pearlite. Ferrite is a body-centred cubic crystal
structure of iron alloys. For higher cooling rates of water and salt water cooled samples, low
temperature transformation products like bainite (an acicular microstructure which is not a phase) or
martensite (a very hard form of steel crystalline structure) were formed. The salt water cooled samples
had more martensite regions because of the increased cooling rate

The ever increasing demand from aerospace industries and automotive industries to manufacture components which are lighter and stronger than conventional steel has prompted the significant usage of aluminium alloys. This research work involves the investigation of mechanical properties in aluminium alloys before and after work hardening. The alloy is work hardened using cold forging process. The major alloying elements used in the aluminium alloy are manganese, magnesium and silicon. The aluminium alloy ingots are prepared through gravity casting. After the ingots are air cooled to room temperature, they are work hardened using cold forging method where the ingots are forged at room temperature. The cold forged aluminium alloys are then subjected to tensile tests, wear tests, hardness tests and microstructure analysis using optical Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The material properties achieved are compared with the alloys properties that have not been subjected to work hardening. The expected outcome is to achieve a work hardened aluminium alloy that exhibits excellent mechanical properties which can be best suited for numerous industrial manufacturing requirements. Better ideal properties such as formability, weldability, increased hardness and wear resistance are expected from the cold forged alloys.

The document discusses the manufacturing of an aluminium matrix composite using stir casting. Stir casting involves dispersing a ceramic reinforcement (in this case alumina) into molten aluminium alloy using mechanical stirring. Several process parameters for stir casting are outlined, including a stirring speed of 300 rpm, temperature of 800°C, and stirring time of 5 minutes. The experimental setup used involved heating aluminium alloy to melting, adding 1% magnesium as a wetting agent, and adding preheated alumina reinforcement during stirring. The molten composite was then poured into a preheated mold. The summary concludes that stir casting is a cost-effective method for producing aluminium matrix composites with uniform distribution of reinforcement and enhanced mechanical properties.

1) Surface roughness and hardness tests found that applying the SS-II coating maintained surface roughness while increasing hardness.
2) Pin-on-disk friction tests found that the SS-II coating reduced the coefficient of friction at different speeds compared to uncoated LM13 alloy.
3) Scanning electron microscope images showed the SS-II coating had low porosity and good adhesion to the LM13 substrate, as well as evidence of wear on coated samples tested.
In this work, effect of welding electrode, welding current and corrosion media on
corrosion behaviour of three kinds of stainless steel (AISI 304, AISI 316 and AISI 410)
was investigated. Welding was performed by manual metal arc welding process using
three types of welding electrode (E308L, E316L and E310). Corrosion behaviour of
the welded joints was examined in two chloride mediums (3.5%NaCl and 3.5%KCl).
The results showed that welding electrodes E316L and E310, which contain Mo and
Ni respectively, increase corrosion resistance in of the weldment. The increment in
heat input by increasing welding current caused reduction in corrosion resistance by
facilitating carbon diffusion and formation of chromium carbides in the weld area. It
was also found that corrosion rate of 3.5% NaCl was more aggressive than 3.5% KCl.
Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Sintered Hot Upset Forged Square Cros...IJMER
Present investigation pertains to evaluate the tensile properties of sintered hot forged
and oil quenched and also homogenized, but furnace cooled specimens which were machined from
square cross section bars of approximate dimensions of ~13mm x ~13mm x~100±5mm of Fe-
0.16%C, Fe-0.16%C-0.7%Mn, Fe-0.16%C-1.0%Cr-0.55%Mo and Fe-0.16%C-2.25Cr-1.05%Mo
P/M steels prepared from elemental powders. Green compacts of homogeneously blended powders
of all compositions were prepared with initial aspects ratio of 1.34 with diameter being 27.5mm
using suitable compaction die set assembly on 1.0MN capacity UTM to a density level of 0.85±0.01
of theoretical employing controlled pressures in the range of 490±10MPa and taking pre – weighed
powder blends. All green compacts were protected during sintering by applying thin film of
indigenously developed ceramic coating on the entire surfaces. Ceramic coated compacts were
sintered in an electric muffle furnace at 1373±10K for a period of 120 minutes. All sintered
preforms of each com position were hot forged on a 1.0MN capacity friction screw press to square
cross section bars of afore mentioned dimensions. Once the forging operation was completed 10-12
bars were quenched in linseed oil and nearly 12 bars were homogenized at sintering temperature
for one hour and then cooled inside the furnace itself. Standard tensile specimens were machined
and tested on Hounsfield Tensometer for evaluating tensile properties which were appreciably close
to the properties reported in literature for the above steels. Microstructure of specimens containing
chromium and molybdenum exhibited few un-dissolved particles along with the presence of fine
pores. SEM Fractography revealed mixed mode failure mostly ductile and partly brittle. These
steels also exhibited adequate ductility as is exhibited by conventionally produced steels. Thus, this
investigation shows the way how to produce high density P/M steels which can be used in structural
applications.

This document presents a comparative study on the abrasive wear behavior of zinc-based and copper-based alloys. Pin-on-disc tests were conducted on samples of the two alloys under varying loads and sliding distances. The zinc-based alloy exhibited higher wear rates and friction coefficients than the copper-based alloy. Microstructural analysis found the zinc alloy had a dendritic structure with intermetallic phases, while the copper alloy contained copper and intermetallic compounds. Temperature and friction increased with load and sliding time for both alloys, with the zinc alloy experiencing higher temperatures and friction. The copper alloy showed better wear resistance overall.

- Global income inequality has increased substantially since the 1980s according to measures of the gap between the richest and poorest countries. While absolute poverty has declined in some Asian countries, it has increased in others.
- The "winners" of globalization have been middle-income groups in emerging Asian economies like China and India whose incomes multiplied rapidly, while the "losers" were lower-income groups in rich countries whose growth was modest.
- Liberal views argue that open markets and policies like free trade reduce poverty through growth, but critics argue they often increase inequality and unemployment in developing nations. The impacts of globalization on inequality are complex and depend on local and global factors.
This document summarizes research on developing dual phase steel through intercritical annealing of low carbon steel and determining the mechanical properties. Intercritical annealing involves heating low carbon steel to the ferrite-austenite phase region, then rapid cooling to form martensite. Samples were annealed at temperatures from 740°C to 840°C and tested. Hardness and toughness increased with higher annealing temperature and time due to higher martensite content. Dual phase steel microstructures containing martensite islands in a ferrite matrix had greater hardness and toughness than untreated low carbon steel due to the hard martensite phase.

The document discusses the manufacturing of an aluminium matrix composite using stir casting. Stir casting involves dispersing a ceramic reinforcement (in this case alumina) into molten aluminium alloy using mechanical stirring. Several process parameters for stir casting are outlined, including a stirring speed of 300 rpm, temperature of 800°C, and stirring time of 5 minutes. The experimental setup used involved heating aluminium alloy to melting, adding 1% magnesium as a wetting agent, and adding preheated alumina reinforcement during stirring. The molten composite was then poured into a preheated mold. The summary concludes that stir casting is a cost-effective method for producing aluminium matrix composites with uniform distribution of reinforcement and enhanced mechanical properties.
This document summarizes a study that investigated applying a stainless steel spray coating called SS-II to an LM13 aluminum alloy used in engine applications. The study aimed to reduce surface roughness and friction of reciprocating engine parts. Key findings include:
1) Surface roughness and hardness tests found that applying the SS-II coating maintained surface roughness while increasing hardness.
2) Pin-on-disk friction tests found that the SS-II coating reduced the coefficient of friction at different speeds compared to uncoated LM13 alloy.
3) Scanning electron microscope images showed the SS-II coating had low porosity and good adhesion to the LM13 substrate, as well as evidence of wear on coated samples tested.
In this work, effect of welding electrode, welding current and corrosion media on
corrosion behaviour of three kinds of stainless steel (AISI 304, AISI 316 and AISI 410)
was investigated. Welding was performed by manual metal arc welding process using
three types of welding electrode (E308L, E316L and E310). Corrosion behaviour of
the welded joints was examined in two chloride mediums (3.5%NaCl and 3.5%KCl).
The results showed that welding electrodes E316L and E310, which contain Mo and
Ni respectively, increase corrosion resistance in of the weldment. The increment in
heat input by increasing welding current caused reduction in corrosion resistance by
facilitating carbon diffusion and formation of chromium carbides in the weld area. It
was also found that corrosion rate of 3.5% NaCl was more aggressive than 3.5% KCl.
Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Sintered Hot Upset Forged Square Cros...IJMER
Present investigation pertains to evaluate the tensile properties of sintered hot forged
and oil quenched and also homogenized, but furnace cooled specimens which were machined from
square cross section bars of approximate dimensions of ~13mm x ~13mm x~100±5mm of Fe-
0.16%C, Fe-0.16%C-0.7%Mn, Fe-0.16%C-1.0%Cr-0.55%Mo and Fe-0.16%C-2.25Cr-1.05%Mo
P/M steels prepared from elemental powders. Green compacts of homogeneously blended powders
of all compositions were prepared with initial aspects ratio of 1.34 with diameter being 27.5mm
using suitable compaction die set assembly on 1.0MN capacity UTM to a density level of 0.85±0.01
of theoretical employing controlled pressures in the range of 490±10MPa and taking pre – weighed
powder blends. All green compacts were protected during sintering by applying thin film of
indigenously developed ceramic coating on the entire surfaces. Ceramic coated compacts were
sintered in an electric muffle furnace at 1373±10K for a period of 120 minutes. All sintered
preforms of each com position were hot forged on a 1.0MN capacity friction screw press to square
cross section bars of afore mentioned dimensions. Once the forging operation was completed 10-12
bars were quenched in linseed oil and nearly 12 bars were homogenized at sintering temperature
for one hour and then cooled inside the furnace itself. Standard tensile specimens were machined
and tested on Hounsfield Tensometer for evaluating tensile properties which were appreciably close
to the properties reported in literature for the above steels. Microstructure of specimens containing
chromium and molybdenum exhibited few un-dissolved particles along with the presence of fine
pores. SEM Fractography revealed mixed mode failure mostly ductile and partly brittle. These
steels also exhibited adequate ductility as is exhibited by conventionally produced steels. Thus, this
investigation shows the way how to produce high density P/M steels which can be used in structural
applications.

Comparative Study on the High-Stress Abrasive Wear Behaviour of Zinc and Copp...IRJET Journal
This document presents a comparative study on the abrasive wear behavior of zinc-based and copper-based alloys. Pin-on-disc tests were conducted on samples of the two alloys under varying loads and sliding distances. The zinc-based alloy exhibited higher wear rates and friction coefficients than the copper-based alloy. Microstructural analysis found the zinc alloy had a dendritic structure with intermetallic phases, while the copper alloy contained copper and intermetallic compounds. Temperature and friction increased with load and sliding time for both alloys, with the zinc alloy experiencing higher temperatures and friction. The copper alloy showed better wear resistance overall.

- Global income inequality has increased substantially since the 1980s according to measures of the gap between the richest and poorest countries. While absolute poverty has declined in some Asian countries, it has increased in others.
- The "winners" of globalization have been middle-income groups in emerging Asian economies like China and India whose incomes multiplied rapidly, while the "losers" were lower-income groups in rich countries whose growth was modest.
- Liberal views argue that open markets and policies like free trade reduce poverty through growth, but critics argue they often increase inequality and unemployment in developing nations. The impacts of globalization on inequality are complex and depend on local and global factors.

IRJET- Mechanical and Tribological Characterisation of Sintered Iron and Alu...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on developing sintered iron-based alloys with varying compositions of iron, aluminium, nickel, and chromium using powder metallurgy techniques. Metal powders were compacted and sintered at high temperatures to produce test specimens. Mechanical properties like hardness and compressive strength were evaluated. The alloys with 30% iron, 30% aluminium, 15% nickel, and 15% chromium demonstrated the highest hardness and strength. The research aims to determine alloy compositions that improve tribological properties for applications in machine elements like gears and bearings.
Cryogenic treatment is a secondary process to traditional heat treatment used for improving the hardness and wear resistance of tool steels. Though the potential use of cryogenic treatment on AISI D2 tool steel under laboratory conditions has been well established by the researchers, it is essential to do the analysis to ensure its sustainable use for industrial application. Therefore, impact of cryogenic treatment on AISI D2 steel blanking punch was evaluated in terms of increase in production rate and its life. The cryogenically treated D2 tool steel punches were used and subjected to manufacture the control levers using blanking operations. The improved wear resistance of cryogenically treated punch resulted in increase in production and punch life more than 200%. Punch life was studied and correlated to increase in production & wear behavior of blanking punch. The AISI D2 steel samples were prepared and subjected to laboratory tests comprising of metallographic observations and hardness. It was found that laboratory tests were not enough to predict improvements in mechanical properties. The mechanism responsible for augmented wear resistance by cryogenic treatment was the conversion of retained austenite to martensite and precipitation of new secondary carbides.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

components. The main objective of this text is to
investigate the hot rolling characteristics of boron
steels with the variance of molybdenum additions. It
will also discuss elevated temperature uni-axial
compression tests at multiple temperatures, and
various strain rates in regards to simulating strip
steel production [2].
As one of the examples for the need of such
studies in mechanical engineering fields can be
explained by the increasing demand for vehicle
safety, as well as crash needs in industry for
vehicles, the use of ultrahigh-strength steels in
components of safety and structural aspects has
increased. The greater need for performance can be
met through the process of cold stamping using
thick-gauge steel, which leads to increasing the
weight of the vehicle.
Nevertheless, ultrahigh-strength steels
represent a great challenge during the process of
stamping due to their pronounced spring back and
limited formability at room temperature [3].
The hot stamping process with the die
cooling of boron steels was utilized at the end of the
1990s in order to produce particular automotive
parts such as bumper beams as well as door beams.
This process of using boron steel helps to avoid
some of the difficulties that are related to the use of
other types of material [4].
The latter part of the text will tackle the
microstructure assessment after compression and
cooling, which include microscopy and hardness
testing. This text will also discuss which grade of
steel is optimum in terms of reducing the work of
roll loads.
Nowadays, boron steels are becoming
popular in diverse applications. According to
Frydman and Letkowska (2011) [5], boron steels
which were originally used for hard and wear-
resistant elements are now becoming widely used in
different applications due to of their technologically
developed advantageous properties. In order to form
steel. in different sections, one of the basic steps to
be carried out is for it to undergo the rolling process.
The widely used is Rolling process of forming and
producing steel where metal is undergo to high
compressive stress [6].

This compressive stress is due to the
friction between the rolls and the metal surface. Hot
rolling and cold rolling are the two main divisions of
the process. In many material engineering books, the
hot rolling process is described as the initial
breakdown of ingots into blooms and billets, which
are further rolled into plates, sheets, rods, bars, pipes
and rails. On the other hand, cold rolling is a process
carried out by means of recrystallisation temperature
and introducing work hardening [6].
In our present age where everything is fast
moving and mass production with high quality is a
must, optimization in the manufacturing and
production of a major material like steel, should
focused on. Different metal elements are alloyed to
steel in order to achieve certain properties for
specific uses. According to [7], molybdenum is
usually used as an alloy with high strength low alloy
steels to boost their mechanical properties. These
steel grades are becoming beneficial to different
industries such as oil, gas, automotive and
construction because increasing the steel's
mechanical properties will increase its performance
resulting in lower steel requirements [7].
According to to Nourami, et al (2012) [8]
"Molybdenum (Mo) is added to improve strength,
through the precipitation of fine carbides after
quenching and tempering, and hard enability." They
also state that molybdenum enhances the temper
resistance and high temperature strength, and has
been known to prevent sulfide corrosion cracking.
The addition of molybdenum to boron steel is very
beneficial in different applications of steel. Table 1
below shows the composition of boron steel;
increasing the amount of alloying elements such as
molybdenum can greatly increase its properties.
Table 1: Chemical composition of boron steel [9].
Mohbacherin (2010) [7], emphasised that it
will increase the performance of steel with lower
quantity requirements. This is a response to the
demand for high quality steel at a reasonable price.
Figures 1 and 2 below show the effects of using
molybdenum for the yield strength of steel and the
advantages in consumption and processing efforts.
The economic benefits of this can be accounted from
the reduced transportation costs and handling of
materials because of the reduced load, which means
greater speed, less fuel consumption and easy
management.
Figure 1: Effects of molybdenum alloying in the
strength of steel [7].
Figure 2: Benefits of using high strength steel in
terms of consumption and processing efforts [7].
In the same study by Mohrbacher [7], he
has discussed the effects of molybdenum during the
hot rolling stage of steel. These effects includes
recrystallisation, strain induced precipitation,
hardenability and interphase precipitation. Figure 3
below illustrates how the addition of molybdenum to
steel has a significant impact at every stage of the
hot rolling process.

Molybdenum indirectly influences the
behaviour of micro alloying elements such as Nb, Ti
and V [7]. Niobium (Nb) causes the slow range of
recrystallisation of low carbon steel. This retarding
of the rate of recrystallisation caused by
molybdenum and niobium should be assisted by
elevated temperatures to achieve a homogeneous,
fully recrystallised microstructure within the most
inter pass time in the roughing mill [7]. Figure 4
below demonstrates the influence of Mo-Nb
combinations on static recrystallisation at high
temperatures.
Figure 4: Effects of mo-nb combinations on
static recrystallisation at high temperature [7].
Aside from the increase in the retardation
of recrystallisation, another effect of the addition of
molybdenum is the decrease in the amount of
precipitation due to the reduction in the activity of
carbon and nitrogen [7]. This action later on will
result in a more refined grain when accelerated
cooling is applied.
The reduction of carbon activity mentioned
earlier is very advantageous to boron steels. Boron is
a hardenability element used in low carbon steels,
thus its effectiveness is greatly improved by the
addition of molybdenum [7]. According to Deva, et
al (2012), “It is well established that boron increases
hardenability of steels by retarding the
heterogeneous nucleation of ferrite at the austenite
grain surfaces.” They also state that in recent studies
the effectiveness of boron on hardenability is
dependent on the soaking temperature and cooling
conditions [10]. According to a study by Frydman
and Letkowska, proper heat treatment with this kind
of steel is crucial to achieve the characteristics
required, because improper temperatures will reduce
the opportunity for high mechanical and chemical
properties [4].
II. MATERIALS AND EXPERIMENT
With regards to the process of identifying
which grade of boron steel will achieve optimum
work roll loads, this report will discuss the Gleeble,
uni-axial compressing test and the microstructure
before and after hot stamping show the
determination of processes for controlling work
hardening is carried out by means of continuous
compression tests using the Gleeble 3500 thermo
mechanical simulator . The stress-strain must be
defined in a particular temperature range. To
simulate the different conditions of hot rolling, the
specific amount of true strain should be identified.
The Gleeble system can be considered as a
new age in mechanical thermal physical testing and
simulation
Characteristically, a material sample is
heated besides being mechanically worked, and
numerous behavior parameters of attention are
recorded and measured for future analysis. After the
test or simulation has been carried out, the material
microstructure may likewise be inspected.
This system can deliver a cost effective
method for simulating the physical performance
using high temperature procedures and requests that
is cheaper than testing on the full scale; furthermore,
the excellent results and correlations may then be
applied practically to the real application or process.
The applications for material testing have included
the following [11]:
- Warm or hot tensile testing
- Warm or hot compression testing which
includes:
• Uniaxial compression
• Strain help Crack Opening (SICO)
• Plane strain compression
- Stress vs. strain curvatures
- Nil strength testing
- Hot ductility testing
- Solidification and melting
- Heat treatment or thermal cycling
- Phase transformation or Dilatometry
- Studies of the Stress relaxation
- Stress or Creep rupture
- Fatigue (Thermal, Mechanical or Thermal).
In this work, uniaxial compression will be discussed.

Figure 5: Uniaxial Compression machine.
The phase diagrams provided give an
indication of the material microstructures that may
be obtained. However, the phase diagrams assume
equilibrium and they provide an idea about the
material microstructure that may form because of
slow cooling (small value rates of cooling). If the
formation of the material microstructures wants to
be understood, the rate of cooling should be taken
into account, as per the diagrams for TTT and CCT.
Despite TTT diagrams being considered an effective
tool for understanding the microstructure, in most
practical situations, the transformations occur not
isothermally but throughout continuous cooling.
Hence, what is called Transformation of Continuous
Cooling (CCT) diagrams, are extremely important. It
is possible to move from TTT to CCT diagrams in
particular circumstances, and the transformation
kinetics are assumed to be based on one fraction of
the transformed phases and on the temperature only.
The studies also shows the Gleeble and
hardness test experimental results. Also, the
microstructure will be displayed before and after the
hot stamping process. The steel grades that have
been used in this experiment are Steel 50, Steel 52,
and Steel 53, where the base grade is 25MnB5,
which contains 0.2%wt of Mo 25MnMoB5 and
0.4%wt Mo 25MnMoB5.
In the beginning, the grades were heated to
1200°C for 10°C/Sec. where the hold was done for
1Min. Then the grades were cooled to 1100°C at
10°C/Sec. When the temperature reached 1100°C, it
was compressed to a strain of about 0.3 at a strain
rate equal to 1. After that, the double hit was
performed at three different temperatures, which are
900, 850 and 800°C. The grade was cooled from
1100°C to one of the above temperatures at
10°C/Sec, and at the chosen temperature compressed
further to a strain of about 0.2 at a strain rate of 1
twice.
The cooling process continued until the grade
reached 750°C at 6°C (it was supposed to be 10, but
it was only noticed later on that it was different;
however it was consistent for each test). Then the
cooling to 0 at 10°C/S (until controlled cooling was
lost ~200°C).
III. DATA ANALYSIS AND RESULT
The compressive force of steel 50 at the
three different temperatures is shown in the
following figures:
Figure 6 : Force of the steel 50.
The compressive force with time at the
three different temperatures for the same grade had
the same shape, where in the beginning for steel 50,
the temperature was 800°C. The compressive force
started with zero value until the time reached about
250Sec; the compressive force decreased to a value
less than -2500N, then it was increased by Sharpe
way until the time reached about 330s where the
compressive force had an approximately constant
value after that.

IV. CONCLUSION
Steel material is considered to be the most
important material that is used in several engineering
applications due to it being a foremost element in the
building of structures. Because of the increasing
demand for vehicles safety as well as crash needs in
industry, the use of ultrahigh-strength steels in
components of safety and structural aspects is
increased. The hot stamping process with the die
cooling of boron steels was introduced at the end of
the 1990s in order to produce some types of
automotive parts such as bumper beams as well as
door beams. This process of using boron steel helps
to avoid some of the difficulties that are related to
the use of other types of materials.
Boron steels are suitable for various
applications. Molybdenum can be used as an alloy to
ensure a high value of strength for the alloys of low
steels and to enhance their properties, for example
mechanical properties. These grades are useful in
diverse industries since improving the mechanical
properties of the steel will increase its performance.
In addition, the paper has discussed the
Gleeble hardness test besides the microstructure
before and after implementation of the hot stamping
process. The stress-strain has been defined for a
particular temperature range. Also, the paper has
provided accurate TTT and CCT diagrams for the
three grades that were used, which are steel 50, steel
52 and steel 53.
• The Gleeble experiment shows that the
grades(50,52,53) were heated to 1200°C at
10°C/Sec, where the Hold was done for 1Min. Then
the grades were cooled to 1100°C at 10°C/Sec.
When the temperature reached 1100°C, the
compress occurred to a strain of about 0.3 at a strain
rate equal to 1. After that, the double hit was
performed at three different temperatures, which are
900, 850 and 800 °C. Where the grade was cooled
from 1100°C to one of the above temperatures at
10°C/Sec, it was compressed further to a strain of
about 0.2 at a strain ratio of 1 twice. The cooling
process continued until the grade reached 750°C at
6°C (it was supposed to be 10, but it was only
noticed later on that it was different, however it was
consistent for each test). Then the cooling to 0 at
10°C/S occurred (until controlled cooling is lost
~200°C).
