Quenching and partitioning of plate steel: development of design methodologies
Quenching and partitioning (Q&P), a new heat steel treatment concept to develop high strength martensitic microstructures with retained austenite, has been implemented industrially to make sheet products. This process is also of interest for thicker plate products, to employ transformation-induced …

Quenching and partitioning plate steel for wear and toughness applications
… (Q&P) processing to produce low-alloy steel plates with increased wear resistance and toughness for use in the mining and earth moving industries. This work investigates the application of Q&P heat treatments to 18 mm thick low-alloy steel plates to obtain microstructures containing …

Hydrogen distribution and redistribution in the weld zone of constructional steels
… of electric arc welding revolutionized the steel construction industry, but also brought some problems when the welded region has inferior properties compared to the plate metal. A major cause of brittle failure was identi ed as hydrogen embrittlement of the weld zone, although a …

Experimental and Numerical Explorations of Fire Performance of Intumescent Thermoplastic Composites for Electric Vehicle Battery Enclosures
… loading on horizontally oriented plate-scale composite specimens in a safer and more controlled manner. One-sided fire exposure generated using a sand burner reproduced pool-fire-like conditions, while steel cylinders were configured to represent mechanical loads of Li-ion battery …

Low Temperature Cleavage Fracture of Microalloyed Bainitic Plate Steels
… using four experimental microalloyed bainitic plate steels. The four plate samples were produced by different thermomechanical processing (TMP) schedules and had yield strengths in the range 540 - 670 MPa. Microstructures were characterized by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron …

Unified Design of Extended End-Plate Moment Connections Subject to Cyclic Loading
… unified design procedures for eight extended end-plate moment connection configurations subject to cyclic/seismic loading. In addition, the suitability of extended end-plate moment connections for use in seismic force resisting moment frames was investigated. Eleven full-scale cyclic and nine …

Performance of Steel Fiber Reinforced and Conventionally Reinforced Post-Tensioned Flat Plates
… residential buildings, post-tensioned (PT) flat plates have become a preferred choice for floor systems, because of the numerous advantages over non-prestressed slabs such as better efficiency, reduced slab self-weight, as well as crack and deflection control. To improve the competitive advantage …
