Effect of layer angle on tensile behavior of oblique layer functionally graded steels

Authors: ALI NAZARI, SHADI RIAHI

Abstract: In this work, tensile and yield stress and tensile and yield strain of oblique layer functionally graded steels produced by electroslag remelting were investigated. Functionally graded steels containing ferrite, austenite, bainite, and/or martensite layers may be fabricated via diffusion of alloying elements during the remelting stage. Tensile and yield stress and tensile and yield strain of functionally graded steels depend on the composition, containing layers, and angles of oblique layers. By increasing the angle of layers with respect to the load axis, the tensile and yield stresses of functionally graded steels were decreased.
