Almost $200 billion is used for fixing and preventing the damage done by corrosion each year in the United States. The process of corrosion costs important money and resources. Iron and steel are the most important resources that corrode. About 20% of the steel and iron produced in the United States is used to repair bridges or pipelines that have suffered from the effects of corrosion. Corrosion occurs when metals, through chemical reactions, are broken down (“Corrosion,” 2008, paras. 1-2). The…

development of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS). The AHSS include Dual Phase (DP) steels, [1–10], High Strength Low Alloy steels (HSLA), Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels, Twinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels, and medium manganese steels, (Bouaziz et al., 2013). The majority of the research are focused on the development of third generation of steels due to interest in the mechanical properties of high manganese steels. Only recently the TWIP steels have received…

Development of the steel industry was boosted by discovery of the Bessemer process. ("Second Industrial Revolution") Henry Bessemer and William Kelly drastically reduced the cost and time needed in producing steel from pig-iron. They found out that that blasting air through molten iron produced high quality steel. Steel was widely used in construction of buildings, because it provided good support for skyscrapers and tall towers. Cornelius Vanderbilt, an American entrepreneur who built his…
