Influence of Vanadium on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Medium-Carbon Steels for Wheels

Steels used for high-speed train wheels require a combination of high strength, toughness, and wear resistance. In 0.54% C-0.9% Si wheel steel, the addition of 0.075 or 0.12 wt % V can refine grains and increase the ferrite content and toughness, although the influence on the microstructure and toug...
