The importance is predicated on this: while HSS has yield strengths from 210 to 550 MPa and tensile strengths of 270 to 700 MPa, the ultrahigh strength steels (UHSS), which is the extreme end of the AHSS category, have a yield strength of 550 MPa or more and a tensile strength of 700 MPa or more.
For specimens parallel to the flow direction, the yield strengths at different melt temperatures were very close and the stress-strain curves after yielding did not show much difference.
Pre-conditioning and late-inoculation with 75% FeSi containing Bi and rare earths significantly decrease tensile and yield strengths in 3-mm sections as a result of higher nodule count (with a corresponding higher ferrite content) whereas in the 12-mm section, the strength is not affected much.
