Relationship between the metallurgical properties and crash performance of automotive structures

Work was undertaken to establish whether microstructural changes during high-speed deformation could explain the inferior crash performance of mild steel compared to carbon-manganese grades, which in turn are deemed inferior to dual phase steel grades. This thesis correlates the relationship between...
