Metallurgy rules !!!!!
Yes link works ! I saved it so will peruse it carefully !
One problem I have is when you retire you're out of the loop quickly .
Thanks Samurai .
 
For those who are not high tech guys - please read through because you will see things that you can relate to , such a photos 8 - 10 , what happens to the austenitic grain boundaries. Also understand the importance of basic research , it permits us make good progress rather than just guessing ! Fortunately we have the tools today to see exactly what's happening .
 
I love this stuff but I am definitely not a tech guy. Heck, I've only gotten through a few chapters of Verhoeven so far and my head wants to explode. But I'll keep reading and re-reading these texts until I understand it. Thanks for posting.
 
I think they took a dartboard, put part of the alphabet on it, and made up the data using darts :)

Really interesting article. If I am reading it right, it shows why a little nitrogen in vanadium steel is a good thing. The roll of N was not completely clear to me before.
 
Thanks for posting this. I haven't read it yet, but I will after I finish the yard work today.
 
It's got big words in it... must be true.

I still struggle to get through papers like this. I read it several times and come back to it months later. I find myself skimming until I spot something that makes sense to me... the rest gets lost in translation and I hate that fact. There must be online metallurgy courses one could take to get a solid foundation of the basic principles. I'm looking into it.

N, as well as Nb. Niobium is cool stuff!!!
 
I'm in good company, that's my exact study method as well.
Looking forward to reading the magic spells on the other end of that link.

It took me 6 beers to read this one sentence.

" These include the nucleation sequence of homogeneous precipitates of vanadium carbonitride and whether this occurs coherently, the composition of the vanadium precipitates, the nucleation mechanism for interphase precipitation, the importance of strain induced precipitation in austenite of vanadium carbonitride, the contributions of both interphase precipitation and random precipitation in ferrite to the yield strength, and the role of the process route parameters in developing properties.:very_drunk:
 
I didn't write that !!
Very poorly written . It might even been written as a column. One beer per column !
