The properties of steel can be improved in terms of fatigue, weldability, hardness, wear and corrosion resistance, ductility, and tensile strength by either alloy addition or heat treatment processes.

The figure shows the evolution of the microstructure of the melt pool under the influence of the simulated transient temperature field. Nucleated grains are represented in pink-purple plots, while ...

Printing of a periodic microstructure on a glass surface using a PDMS slab. Iridescent colors generated by the microstructure are also shown in the second row images. 1. A team of researchers from ...
