    Austempering vs. Q&P: Comparative effects on microstructure and mechanical properties of complex-alloyed TRIP-assisted steel

    No full text
    This study compares the effect of austempering (AT) and two-step quenching and partitioning (Q&P) treatments on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a 0.2 wt% C Mn-Si-Cr-Mo-V-Nb TRIP-assisted steel. Both treatments included austenitization (770 °C or 900 °C) followed by quenching and isothermal holding (20 min). AT used a 350 °C isothermal hold, while Q&P involved quenching to 200 °C or 230 °C, followed by partitioning at 350 °C. Microstructural analysis (OM, SEM, XRD, EPMA, EBSD) revealed ferrite and (Nb,V)C in both treatments, with bainite (AT) or tempered martensite/bainite (Q&P) and varying retained austenite (RA) content depending on the austenitization temperature. Austenitization at 770 °C resulted in Cr- and Mo-promoted cementite precipitation, reducing the RA volume fraction and ductility. In contrast, 900 °C austenitization resulted in a cementite-free structure with 7–9 vol% RA exhibiting a clear TRIP effect. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increased with austenitization temperature (820–880 MPa to 1040–1090 MPa) due to a decreased proeutectoid ferrite, grain refinement, and enhanced TRIP effect, though at some expense of ductility/toughness. Under the same austenitization parameters, Q&P yielded slightly higher UTS (∼ 50 MPa higher), and much greater impact toughness (by 2 times at 770 °C and 1.4 times at 900 °C). Due to a superior strength-ductility-toughness balance, Q&P is identified as a more promising heat treatment for this TRIP-assisted steel

    On the equation V * G = ΕV

    This note uses some recent powerful tools related with semidirect products V W of pseudovarieties of semigroups, particularly when the second factor is the pseudovariety G of all finite groups, to give syntactic proofs of equalities of the form V G = EV, where EV denotes the pseudovariety consisting of the finite semigroups whose idempotents generate subsemigroups from V. Subpseudovarieties V of DS are considered, including all subpseudovarieties of LI, DA, DS itself, and J, the latter providing a new proof of a result of Henckell and Rhodes. 1. Introduction Since the publication of Eilenberg's treatise [13], motivated by earlier developments stemming from applications in computer science, the theory of finite semigroups has evolved mainly in the form of their classification in pseudovarieties. For later developments, see the introductory book by Pin [23] and the first author's book [1]. From the early beginnings, several operators on pseudovarieties associated with natural operator..

    Snubbed Landmark: Why United States v. Cruikshank (1876) Belongs at the Heart of the American Constitutional Canon

    No full text
    United States v. Cruikshank (1876) is an unacknowledged landmark of American constitutional jurisprudence. Cruikshank, not the far more famous Civil Rights Cases, limited the Fourteenth Amendment to protect only against state action; Cruikshank, not the notorious Slaughter-House Cases, narrowed the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to exclude rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights; Cruikshank, not the canonical Washington v. Davis, announced that the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause protected only against provably intentional race discrimination; and Cruikshank, not the Civil Rights Cases or City of Boerne v. Flores, first excepted the Fourteenth Amendment from the general principle that Congress enjoys discretion to select the means of implementing its constitutional powers. Historically, if the argument of this Article holds true, Cruikshank played a crucial role in terminating Reconstruction and launching the one-party, segregationist regime of “Jim Crow” that prevailed in the South until the 1960s. The circuit court opinion of Justice Joseph Bradley unleashed the second and decisive phase of Reconstruction-era terrorism, while the ruling of the full Court ensured its successful culmination in the “redemption” of the black-majority states. Despite its enormous jurisprudential and historical importance, however, Cruikshank has been omitted from the mainstream narrative and pedagogical canon of constitutional law. The results have been obfuscation and distortion. Unlike the Civil Rights Cases, Slaughter-House, Davis, and City of Boerne — from which students learn the principles actually announced in Cruikshank — Cruikshank lays bare the true origin of those principles in affirmative judicial intervention immunizing overtly racist terrorism against effective law enforcement. By contrast, Plessy v. Ferguson, the legal profession’s chosen focus for confession and atonement, merely let stand the legal product of a white supremacist state government that owed its existence to Cruikshank. With Cruikshank safely off stage, American law students are treated to a happy tale of progress from Plessy to Brown starring the Supreme Court as the primary protector of civil rights — a role that, ironically, the Court carved out for itself by truncating Congress’s civil rights powers in Cruikshank. Add Cruikshank, and the entire narrative shifts in ways that upset time-honored notions in the dimensions of federalism, separation of powers, popular constitutionalism, and class.Peer reviewe
