| Abstract Scope |
Computational materials design has enable the design of alloys specifically targeted for extreme environments. Questek’s Ferrium® M54® steel alloy was specifically designed for naval hook shank extreme applications. In this presentation, we will cover how alternative processing pathways have enabled unique deformation mechanisms that have resulted in further strengthening and toughening of an already robust system. More specifically, the usage of ausforming plus tempering and skin-pass rolling will be presented, along with the novel hierarchical microstructures each processing pathway enables. Discussions of the applicability of these types of processing pathways will be generalized for usage in other materials systems, and alternative extreme environments. |
