Abstract:
The piston is an essential component in the internal combustion system. Unfortunately, most piston products on the market are of low quality, which is detrimental to consumers. Most pistons sold in spare parts shops in Medan City have varying prices and different quality. The study compares four manufacturers' chemical composition, microstructure and hardness of the pistons of 4-stroke motorcycles. The four types of pistons were purchased at an automotive component sales shop in Medan city. The pistons were cut by machine and then analyzed for chemical composition, microstructure and hardness.

Abstract:
Given the strong recent interest in quenching-partitioning-tempering processed steels, the Niobium-alloyed medium carbon steel was investigated here. The microstructural observations and hardness were analyzed by optical microscope, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and hardness test. Results show that when quenched at 210°C and partitioned at 450°C, the quenching partitioning-tempering process leads to ultra fine-grained microstructures of martensite, retained austenite and carbides. And the microstructure and hardness changed differently with the increase of partitioned tim

In this study, SKD61 tool steel was friction stir processed (FSP) using a polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) tool. Microstructure evolution and mechanical property in FSP zone were investigated. Microstructural observation results showed that the microstructures in FSP zone surface were fine grains in the range of 1 - 4 μm due to large plastic deformation during FSP. Micro-hardness test results showed that the average hardness value in FSP zone was 773 HV, 3.7 times the hardness in base metal (210 HV). The wear test results showed that FSP surface showed a significantly lower wear rate

Abstract The microstructure and hardness of two cracked and failed steel (42CrMo4) teeth from two different yaw rings have been investigated.

This is common to both teeth, however, the gradient microstructure and hardness are different for these two yaw rings. It is suggested that this difference in gradient strongly affects cracking and failure. The failure mechanisms for the two teeth are

Abstract:
AbstractAlum sludge is a typical by-product of the water industry. The traditional sludge management method, disposing of sludge in landfill sites, poses a critical environmental and economic concern due to a significant increase in sludge amount and disposal cost. In this paper, the feasibility of reusing sludge as cement replacement is investigated, and the physical performance and microstructure modification of concrete products made with sludge is discussed. The obtained results indicated that a satisfying pozzolanic reactivity of sludge after calcination at high temperatures and grinding to the appropriate size was identified. When 10% cement was replaced with sludge, the reaction degree of sludge was up to 39%, and the obtained concrete blocks exhibited superior mechanical performance. Based on the microstructural analysis, e.g., x-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and advanced nanoindentation method, the high aluminum content in sludge was incorporated into C–(A)–S–H gel; the original “Al-minor” C–(A)–S–H gel in pure cement paste was converted to ‘Al-rich’ C–(A)–S–H gel. Also, sludge promoted the formation of aluminum-bearing hydrates, such as ettringite and calcium aluminate hydrates (C–A–H). Although the Al incorporation had no significant effect on the hardness and modulus of C–(A)–S–H gel, the homogeneous mechanical properties (hardness and modulus measured with nanoindentation) of binder paste degraded with increasing sludge ash content above 10%, attributing to the lower hardness of unreacted sludge than cement clinker and the relatively lower reaction degree. Using sludge in concrete products offers an economical and environmentally friendly way to dispose of sludge and preserve diminishing natural resources. Also, the reduction of cement usage may contribute to achieving carbon neutrality.

Recently, this process has been enhanced with the inductive short time austempering process, creating a martensitic-bainitic microstructure. It is well-known that in homogeneous mixed microstructures, an optimally adjusted volume fraction of bainite can significantly increase the lifetime of the components even further. Regarding inductive short time austempering, there is a lack of knowledge in characterizing and differentiating graded microstructures, wh

Abstract:
Abstract The Jominy End-Quench Test is a powerful method to establish the hardenability of a given steel, as measured by the hardness of the microstructures produced as a function of cooling rate from the quenched specimen end. Hardness, however, does not assess fracture mechanisms and the critical difference between ductile and brittle fracture. For example, in high carbon steels increased austenitizing may increase hardenability but decrease resistance to brittle intergranular fracture of quenched steels. This presentation reviews the effect of austenitizing on the hardenability of carbon st

Abstract:
Abstract Preferential weldment corrosion (PWC) of carbon and low alloy steels used for pipelines and process piping systems in CO2-containing media has been observed increasingly in recent years. In particular, this has been on weldments made by the manual metal arc (MMA) process using electrodes containing Ni or Ni plus Cu. This paper presents the results of a joint industry research programme which was conducted collaboratively by three research organisations to investigate this corrosion mechanism and to seek practical solutions.

Abstract:
Abstract Austempering, which produces a bainitic microstructure, is widely recognized as the preferred heat treatment when toughness is the primary requirement for a component. The literature contains numerous studies comparing the mechanical properties of tempered martensite with bainite of equivalent hardness. The majority of these findings demonstrate superior properties in bainitic microstructures. Bainite exists in two forms: upper bainite, which forms during isothermal transformation at higher temperatures (typically around 500 °C), and lower bainite, which develops at lower temperatures

Abstract:
Sterling silver commonly uses copper as its primary alloying element, which enhances hardness. However, the presence of copper can cause a fire stain—a red spot microstructure—leading to tarnishing issues. This research focuses on reducing the copper content and developing suitable processes to enhance hardness through the use of three different alloy compositions within the AgCu and AgCuZnNi systems: Alloy SA (92.5 wt% Ag - 7.5 wt% Cu), Alloy A (93.5 wt% Ag - 5.01 wt% Cu - 0.79 wt% Zn - 0.70 wt% Ni), and Alloy B (94.5 wt% Ag - 4.24 wt% Cu - 0.63 wt% Zn - 0.63 wt% Ni).

Abstract:
Strain-based design for pipeline projects requires overmatching the strength of the weld metal (WM) relative to the parent pipe to avoid strain localization in the weldment during service. Achieving the required strength overmatch, ductility and low temperature toughness in WM becomes a challenge as the strength of the pipe increases. The introduction of higher productivity advanced pulsed gas metal arc welding (GMAW-P) processes adds further complications from the associated cooling conditions of the weldment.

The presence of hard spot in pipelines, a localized confined region of relatively higher hardness, are prone to crack initiation and hydrogen embrittlement. Early detection of hard spots before it can be an integrity threat is an essential part of integrity management plan for pipelines susceptible to hard spot related failures. Electromagnetic principles and its dependence on the microstructure, heat treatment and chemistry are used effectively for hard spots characterization. The ability to detect shallow hard spots is essential for thermo-mechanically heat treated steel. It is unclear wheth

Abstract:
In petrochemical and oil and gas production plant the presence of sour H2S containing environments poses problems with regard to material behavior. The corrosion reaction between H2S and steel produces atomic hydrogen, which enters the steel and may, for example, lead to hydrogen pressure cracking (HPC) if steel quality is such that inclusion levels promote the entrapment of hydrogen gas. Fortunately this problem may be readily controlled by attention to steel cleanliness. A potentially more serious problem relating to sour environments is sulphide stress cracking (SSC), when the presence of h
