The book reviews new research in the area of deformation mechanisms of structural steels and the possibilities to control the process of strain hardening. Topics covered include: The bainite, martensite and pearlite structure of these steels; the strengthening mechanisms of quenched steel; the evolution of phase composition and defect sub-structure of bainitic steel under deformation; the hardening mechanisms of bainitic steels; and the strain hardening of structural steels with pearlite structure.Keywords: Structural Steels, Strain Hardening, Uniaxial Compression, Martensite Structure, Pearlite Structure, Bainite Structure, Plasticity, Fracture Toughness, Tribological Properties, Wear Resistance, Strength Properties, Corrosion Resistant Steel, Impact Strength, Dislocation Density, Weldability.

Plastic Deformation of Nanostructured Materials offers comprehensive analysis on the most important data and results in the field of materials strength and mechanics. This reference systematically examines the special features of the mechanical behavior and corresponding structural mechanisms of crystal structure defects with grain sizes that range from meso- to micro- levels.
