Understanding Mechanical Properties of Nano-Grained Bainitic Steels from Multiscale Structural Analysis

Steel components working in extreme conditions require materials presenting the highest performances. Nowadays, nanoengineering is being applied to the development of ultra-high strength steels as a key-enabling technology in the steel sector. The present article describes the multiscale structure o...
