One way they modify the steel and come up with new types of ... The other way is to alter its crystal structure and makeup by heating, cooling and working it. Both let ferrous alloys be developed ...

The component elements in steel can be categorised in terms of their crystal structures. At least a basic knowledge of the practical implications of these crystal arrangements is essential to ...

However, it’s not always bad news when the crystal structure at linear defects steps out of line. “Maybe we can bring about these spatially confined states intentionally in order to develop a ...

Crystals don't always grow the way we thought. A team of researchers has just discovered a new type of crystal that shatters ...

At that time the photograms on which his conclusions regarding the crystal structure of the steel components were based were not very clear, and were not published. Moreover, owing to spontaneous ...

Alloying the stainless steel with elements such as nickel, manganese, carbon and nitrogen increases the likelihood that the alloy will possess the fcc crystal structure at room temperature.

Without understanding what is happening to the crystal structure of steel as it is printed, researchers have struggled for years to 3D-print 17-4 PH, in which the crystal structure must be just ...
