High strength steels and line pipe with optimized Y/T ratio

Ziel

Despite their advantages, high strength steels remain under-exploited as a result of the restrictions placed on the yield strength to tensile strength ratio (Y/T).
In this respect, the project aims to define the effect of Y/T on structural performance, to determine how Y/T can be controlled and to subsequently develop new High Strength Steels with the optimum defined ratio.
It focuses on structural, pipeline and steels for applications in areas such as crane and excavator construction with yield stress values ranging from 450 to 1000 Mpa and thicknesses between 10 and 60 mm.
This new generation of products will be achieved through a precise tuning of the chemistry and the thermal route and by iteration steps between: basic metallurgy, local properties and global properties.
