Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Abstract

The strength and ductility characteristics, toughness parameters, and structure of low-alloy steels after thermomechanical treatment are studied. Analysis of the properties of steels with various manganese-to-niobium ratios is performed. An optimum chemical composition for sheet steel subjected to thermomechanical treatment is suggested.
