Artificial Neural Network Model for Grain Refining in Stainless Steels
Austenitic stainless steels, despite their excellent corrosion resistance, have low yield strength. One of the most effective ways to increase yield strength without impairing good ductility is by grain refinement. Austenitic stainless steels do not exhibit any transformation during hot deformation, so grain refinement can be achieved only by recrystallization. Using these processes, grain refinement is limited to about 10 microns [1,2]. Therefore, austenitic stainless steels are commonly subjected to cold deformation in order to increase their strength. However, austenitic stainless steels become magnetic after the sufficient cold deformation due to the formation of strain-induced martensite. These steels are renowned for their non-magnetic properties which is the first tangible characteristics when these steels are compared with ferritic and martensitic stainless steels. Therefore, these steels cannot further be used as non-magnetic materials [3].
A heuristic grain refining method which is called Strain-Induced Martensitic Transformation and its Reversion to austenite (SIMTR) has been invented. In this process, the metastable austenite could be almost completely transformed to ?'-martensite during cold deformation and successive reversion of martensite to austenite enables a marked grain refinement. Therefore, processing parameters should be carefully controlled in order to obtain higher than 90% martensite from cold deformation [1]. On the other hand, annealing conditions should be carefully controlled in order to obtain a fine grained fully austenitic structure [2].
In the first paper, the effect of cold working temperature, the amount of deformation, the strain rate and the initial austenite grain size on the volume fraction of strain-induced martensite in the AISI 301 stainless steel alloy was modeled by means of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) [1]. In the second paper, the effect of annealing temperature and time on the reversion of strain-induced martensite to austenite in the cold worked AISI 304 stainless steel alloy was modeled by means of ANNs [2]. In the third paper, the effect of strain and deformation temperature on the volume fraction of strain-induced martensite in the cold worked AISI 304 stainless steel was modeled by means of ANN. Moreover, the appropriate grain refining zone and safe deformation zone (for preserving non-magnetic properties in cold working) were determined from this model [3].
ANN is a powerful tool for modeling, especially when the underlying data relationships between the inputs and outputs are unknown. ANN modeling can overcome some of the difficulties associated with ordinary methods. For example, it does not need to choose a (physical) relationship between the parameters before analysis [1-3].

The new colors in decor went from stainless steel to vibrant colors. whats your take on this?
you know how everythang used to be stainless steel, well me and my mom were looking thru a penny's magazine and everythang iz vibrant! What do you think? Do you like stainless steel & earthy tones or vibrabt thangs lik what is happening?
Quite frankly anything goes these days. It simply is a matter of studying the color wheel and seeing what goes well together.
Stainless steel is in the silver gray family...most any bright color goes with that.
What do you like?
