| Research Abstract |
Structural metallic materials are usually used for key components with the highest requirements for reliability and safety. However, strength and toughness in materials are strongly correlated, and toughness decreases with increasing strength. In the present study, a high-strength low alloy steel with ultrafine elongated grain structures was fabricated by caliber rolling at warm working temperature, and the strength-toughness balance of the developed steel was remarkably improved compared with conventionally structural materials. This enhanced toughness is attributed to fracture mechanisms of the crack-arrester type, which arrests the propagation of a main crack associated with the unique hierarchical anisotropic nanostructures induced by the caliber rolling. In conclusion, the strength-toughness balance was improved by refining crystal grains and controlling their shape and orientation. The stronger and tougher fail-safe steel was developed, and its fracture mechanism was made clear.
