“…Coarse grains can result in deformation heterogeneity under some conditions [24]. In some conditions, this heterogeneity can result in premature failure [25]. However, in some cases, structural heterogeneity can improve mechanical properties, especially in additively manufactured wire arc stainless steel [26].…”

This study deals with two different aspects of the high-strength low-alloyed 1100 MC steel. The first is associated with the remarkable heterogeneity (linked with surface decarburization) in the surface state produced during sheet rolling with respect to the sheet width. The variable thickness surface layer exhibits a microstructure different from that of the deeper bulk. Variation in the thickness of the thermally softened near-surface region strongly affects Barkhausen noise as well. This technique can be considered a reliable tool for monitoring the aforementioned heterogeneity. It can also be reported that the opposite sides of the sheet are different with respect to the surface state, the heterogeneity distribution, and the corresponding Barkhausen noise. These aspects indicate different conditions during hot rolling followed by rapid quenching on the upper and lower rollers. Furthermore, it was found that the degree of decarburizing and the corresponding surface heterogeneity is also a function of C content, and steels with lower C content exhibit less pronounced surface heterogeneity. The second aspect is related to the remarkable asymmetry in Barkhausen noise emission with respect to two consecutive bursts. This asymmetry is due to the presence of remnant magnetization in the sheet produced during manufacturing. The remnant magnetization is coupled to the magnetic field produced by the excitation coil of the Barkhausen noise sensor and strongly contributes to the aforementioned asymmetry. The remnant magnetization attenuates the domain wall mobility, which results in weaker Barkhausen noise. Moreover, the Barkhausen noise envelopes and the extracted features such as the position of the envelope maximum and its width are strongly affected by the remnant magnetization. Insufficient demagnetization makes the body magnetically softer and makes a wider range of magnetic fields in which Barkhausen noise emission can be detected. As soon as sufficient removal of this remnant magnetization is carried out in the vanishing magnetic field (demagnetization), the aforementioned remarkable asymmetry is fully lost.
