The corrosion and tribocorrosion behaviors of Type 304 stainless steel coated by two different amorphous carbon films, including undoped and Cr-doped amorphous carbon films, were investigated in HNO3 solution, and bare Type 304 stainless steel was used for comparison. In static-corrosion environment, the corrosion current densities of the carbon-based films were decreased by 41% to 97%, when compared with stainless steel, thus suggesting that the corrosion protection properties of the films were excellent. Tribocorrosion tests were conducted to synchronously monitor the open-circuit potential and friction coefficient of the films, and the friction coefficient increased with the increase of HNO3 concentration. Therefore, the carbon-based films could effectively improve the wear resistance of Type 304 stainless steel in HNO3 solutions.

Application of microforming in various research areas has received much attention due to the increased demand for miniature metallic parts that require mass production. For the accurate analysis and design of microforming process, proper modeling of material behavior at the micro/meso-scale is necessary by considering the size effects. Two size effects are known to exist in metallic materials. One is the “grain size” effect, and the other is the “feature/specimen size” effect. This study investigated the “feature/specimen size” effect and introduced a scaling model which combined both feature/specimen and grain size effects. Predicted size effects were compared with experiments obtained from previous research and showed a very good agreement. The model was also applied to forming of micro-features by coining. A flow stress model for Type 304 stainless steel taking into consideration the effect of the grain and feature size was developed and implemented into a finite element simulation tool for an accurate numerical analysis. The scaling model offered a simple way to model the size effect down to length scales of a couple of grains and extended the use of continuum plasticity theories to micro/meso-length scales.
