Résumé
Steel brittle fracture is a problem that puts billions of dollars worth of industrial facilities in cold climates at risk of life loss, lost production and environmental incidents. Although it is well known that steel becomes brittle at cold temperatures, what metallurgical factors affect the temperature at which steel becomes brittle is not well understood and therefore, not optimized. The objective of this project is to (1) develop improved processing parameters to take commonly available steels and optimize their cold temperature durability/toughness and (2) provide solutions to mitigate the risk of brittle fracture for steel already in service.

Description
Steel brittle fracture is a problem that puts billions of dollars worth of industrial facilities in cold climates at risk of life loss, lost production and environmental incidents. Although it is well known that steel becomes brittle at cold temperatures, what metallurgical factors affect the temperature at which steel becomes brittle is not well understood and therefore, not optimized.

Description (French)
La rupture fragile de l’acier est un problème, qui met en péril des milliards de dollars d’installations industrielles dans des climats froids, avec des pertes en vies humaines, des pertes de production et des incidents environnementaux. Bien que l'on sache que l'acier devient cassant par temps froid, les facteurs métallurgiques, qui affectent la température à laquelle l'acier devient cassant, ne sont pas bien compris et ne sont donc pas optimisés. L'objectif de ce projet est de (1) développer des paramètres de traitement améliorés pour prendre les aciers couramment disponibles et optimiser leur durabilité / résistance à la température froide et (2) fournir des solutions pour atténuer le risque de rupture fragile de l'acier déjà en service.
