  1. 82. Role of Manganese and Sulphur Segregation in Hydrogen-Assisted Cracking and MnS Formation in Large Forged Steel Ingots
    Carlo Mapelli (Dipartimento di Meccanica - Politecnico di Milano), Prof. Davide Mombelli (Politecnico di Milano - Dipartimento di Meccanica)

    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    The integrity of large forged components is strongly influenced by macrosegregation phenomena inherited from ingot solidification. In this work, the failure analysis of a large forged turbine shaft (built by 1.6311 steel) is presented to investigate the relationship between manganese segregation, hydrogen-assisted cracking and MnS inclusion formation.
    Ultrasonic inspections revealed an...

    Oral presentation (paper for journal’s special issue)

    High speed steel work rolls in hot rolling are subjected to severe conditions involving high temperature, heavy load, and complex sliding behaviors, where surface damage affects roll service life and strip surface quality. The coexistence of forward and backward slip zones within the deformation region leads to periodic reversal of friction direction during rolling process. However, its...

  4. 77. Rapid Interface Strengthening of Cold-Rolled Bimetallic Composite Strips via Electric Pulse Treatment
    Xiaomiao Niu (Taiyuan University of Technology)
    14/10/2026, 17:10
    Oral Presentation

    The interfacial bonding strength of bimetallic composite strips remains a major limiting factor for their application in high-end engineering fields. Roll bonding is commonly used to fabricate bimetallic composite thin strips, and post processing is required in order to improve the interfacial bonding strength. Conventional annealing processes after roll bonding often lead to excessive...

  5. 25. ECAI Omega: 2 machines in one!
    Claudia Solari (AIM)
    14/10/2026, 17:30
    Oral Presentation

    OMEGA: 2 machines in one!
    Historically two types of machines being based on different technologies and with a very high productivity have been built: double station radial-axial hydraulic ring mills as well as multi-mandrel ring mills for closed-tool ring rolling.
    Based on an over 20 year’s experience with multi-mandrel and radial-axial ring mills, we have designed a new machine type...
