Research on NDT Technology in Inference of Steel Member Strength Based on MacroMicro Model

الملخص EN

In consideration of correlations among hardness, chemical composition, grain size, and strength of carbon steel, a new nondestructive testing technology (NDT) of inferring the carbon steel strength was explored.

First, the hardness test, chemical composition analysis, and metallographic analysis of 162 low-carbon steel samples were conducted.

Second, the following works were carried out: (1) quantitative relationship between steel Leeb hardness and carbon steel strength was studied on the basis of regression analysis of experimental data; (2) influences of chemical composition and grain size on tension properties of carbon steel were analyzed on the basis of stepwise regression analysis, and quantitative relationship between conventional compositions and grain size with steel strength was obtained; (3) according to the macro and/or micro factors such as hardness, chemical compositions, and grain size of carbon steel, the fitting formula of steel strength was established based on MLR (multiple linear regressions) method.

The above relationships and fitting formula based on MLR method could be used to estimate the steel strength with no damage to the structure in engineering practice.
