Ultrasonic Attenuation and Velocity in SAE 52100 Steel Quenched from Various Temperatures EMMANUEL

Fig. 2--Transmission electron micrograph showing the dislocation distribution within subgrain. Thin foil specimens were made parallel to the p r i m a r y slip plane (T = 745~ T = 180 g per sq mm, and e = 10.6 pet in the region of steadystate creep).
