OPTIQPAP

The OptiQPAP consotium members have participated at the Seventh Conference on Recrystallization and Grain Growth (http://www.rexgg2019.org), which took place in Ghent (Belgium) on 4-9th of August, 2019. Prof. Roumen Petrov from University of Ghent and Prof. Jilt..... Despite significant research on microstructure, strength, ductility and strain hardening of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) processed via Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) in the current literature, their application related performance has not yet been studied. The OptiQPAP project focuses on the intelligent microstructural design in the high strength Q&P steels for simultaneous improvement of various performance and mechanical properties, which are required for their commercialization. Special attention will be paid to fatigue and fracture behaviour, wear resistance, weldability, ductile-brittle transition temperature, high strain rate behavior and energy absorption, along with the formability and bendability of Q&P..
