Sheets from titanium alloys VT18U and Ti6Al7Nb are studied after isothermal annealing at 560°C for 1000 h in an air atmosphere. Tensile tests of the specimens are performed. The elongation of the samples of VT18U and Ti6Al7Nb is shown to differ substantially in oxidized condition. Metallographic, fractographic and x-ray diffraction analyses are per...

Results of a study of billets from steel 30KhGSA after a volume laser treatment, which consists of high-speed (20 mm/sec) remelting of a metallic plate with a thickness of 10 mm by a laser beam, are presented. It has been expected that this treatment process should yield a laser-beam-remelted gradient layer with changed microstructure due to the hi...

A high-strength aluminum alloy based on the Al – Zn – Mg – Ni – Fe system is studied in deformed condition after radial shear rolling with reduction 2.78 and 8.16. The microstructure and the hardness are shown to change in the process of the thermal deformation involving quenching and aging by modes T and T1. The bars deformed with reduction 8.16 h...

The crack resistance of railroad rails with transverse internal and external cracks in the head formed in operation is determined. The ultimate crack resistance Ic, the values of which coincide with the critical values of the stress intensity factor KIc under the brittle fracture typical for rails, is determined.

An alternative for the traditional free-cutting steels, i.e., a graphitized steel, is suggested with allowance for the tendencies in design of free-cutting steels connected with reduction of the sulfur content and transfer to unleaded steels. The graphitization process due to inoculation of the steel with boron nitride (BN) is studied by metallogra...
