Effect of deformation temperature on microstructure and corrosion properties of hot-compressed 347H stainless steel by Qiushuang Wang, Ruidong Li, Junchen Li

“…It is found that 347H stainless steel undergoes a valley stage of corrosion properties when deformed near 1050 ℃ with a constant strain rate. The changes of grain boundary density and Σ3 boundaries caused by deformation at different temperatures are the fundamental reasons for the fluctuation of corrosion properties. …”

Mechanical behavior of synthetic fiber ropes for mooring floating offshore wind turbines. by Ji Zeng, He Zhang, Bowen Jin, Hailei Dong, Chiate Chou, Hangyu Li

“…To study the tensile properties and static stiffness characteristics of polyester and nylon ropes, the cables were divided into three stages: preloading, initial installation, and ageing. The strain and reversible elongation of the cables at each stage were analysed, and an empirical formula for quasi-static stiffness considering the creep coefficient of the ropes was established. …”
