International researcher team presents a novel microstructure design strategy for lean medium-manganese steels with optimized properties in the journal Science
The main aspect of this project is to understand how hydrogen interacts with dislocations/ stacking faults at the stress concentrated crack tip. A three-point bending test has been employed for this work.
