The 33rd International Conference on Metallurgy and Materials METAL 2024 was held in Brno on 22-24 May 2024. 82 lectures and 71 posters were prepared for almost 180 participants from 28 countries.

The conference was opened by Professor Peter Jurči from Slovak University of Technology, Faculty of Materials and Technology in Trnava with a lecture High-alloyed Ledeburitic Cold Work Tool Steels.

The second plenary lecture was delivered online by Professor Pavel Novák from the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague. He devoted his lecture to the history, present and future of the use of intermetallic materials.

However, the thematic scope of the conference lectures was traditionally much broader. Researchers presented innovations not only in the fields of production of iron, steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals and alloys, metal forming and surface engineering, but also in the economics and management of metallurgical production.

The prize for the best poster went to Timon SCHILD from the European Space Resources Innovation Centre (Luxembourg).

The next 34th METAL conference will take place again in May 2025.

Abstract: Small punch test is an advantageous method for evaluation of mechanical properties of components because much less material is required for sampling and subsequent material testing. This is especially valuable in cases where not enough bulk material is available, and the repair of sampled place is complicated e.g. [..] Read more

Abstract: In this work, the influence of strain and strain aging parameters on the strength and low temperature toughness of low-carbon microalloyed Nb-V-Ti and Nb-Ti steels is investigated. Industrial samples of 23 mm heavy plates after TMCP (Thermo-Mechanical Controlled Processing) and additional sPWHT (subsequent Post-Weld Heat Treatment) were used for the research. [..] Read more

Abstract: <div>High-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels are low-carbon steels, making them an excellent construction material for automotive applications, transportation of media such as oil and gas, or responsible marine structures often operating in the harsh weather conditions of northern seas. These steels gain unique properties from micro-additives of Nb, V or Ti (up to 0.15 wt%) and can, for example, reduce the weight of structures by up to 40 % compared with the classic S235JR steel.

Abstract: <div>The presence and importance of cavitation damage and fracture during creep of Cr-Mo-V creep resistant steels (including martensitic grades) increases with increasing temperature and time to fracture, and at the same time, a decrease in fracture elongation can also be observed. In the case of uniaxial creep tests, the area and distance from the fracture line where the cavitation can be detected while its intensity gradually decreases also increases.The creep cavitation behaviour of P91 and P92 steels was monitored in a series of creep tests performed in the temperature range of 575 to 625 °C and with a time to fracture of up to 35,000 hours.
