Stainless Steel

This book is devoted to new approaches and usages of stainless steels, the influence of the environments on the behavior of certain classes of steels, new structural concepts to understand some fatigue processes, new insight on strengthening mechanisms, and toughness in microalloyed steels.

This publication assists the reader by grouping comparable steels based on their chemical composition and/or mechanical properties according to a detailed set of rules. It also takes into account product form, application, and type of service, and aids in finding the new CEN standards that have replaced former national standards from Europe and the UK.

Series telling the story of how the craft and manufacturing skills have shaped the country's towns and cities and built modern Great Britain. In this episode, four craft-makers experience Sheffield's rapid transformation from a rural market town to an industrial powerhouse that built modern Britain known as 'Steel City'. Sheffield became famous throughout the world for making high-quality steel blades and cutlery. Steph McGovern takes them through the ages and they are guided by local Sheffield cutler Corin Mellor. Starting in the 18th century, they are tasked with hand forging a scythe at Abbeydale Works.
