Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Advanced Engineering Materials"
DOI: 10.1002/adem.201801116
Abstract: Two different types of strength‐toughness relations are investigated in tempered steel (tempered at 25–420 °C). It is found that there is a trade‐off relation between strength‐fracture toughness and becomes invariable relation between strength‐impact toughness. The effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.carbon.2018.01.006
Abstract: Abstract Metal/reinforcement nanolayered composites can effectively balance the strength and toughness. However, the difficulty of inserting nanoscaled metal layers restricts their practical application. In this study, laminated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced Cu composites with microscaled… read more here.
