Free metallurgy calculators

Each one runs in your browser, shows the formula it uses, and needs no account. They are the individual terms that sit inside the full METALLAI prediction — useful on their own, and the quickest way to see whether the engine behind them is worth your time.

Weldability

Carbon equivalent calculator

CE(IIW) — the CEV of EN 1011-2 — and the Ito–Bessyo Pcm parameter from a steel composition, with the weldability band and preheat guidance.

Heat treatment

Hardenability — Grossmann DI

Ideal critical diameter by the ASTM A255 multiplying-factor method, then your quench and section size — so you get the core martensite fraction, not just a number.

Heat treatment

Critical temperatures — Ac1, Ac3, Ms

Austenitising window and martensite-start temperature from composition, by the Andrews relations — and a warning when your steel is outside the range they were fitted to.

Fatigue

Murakami √area endurance limit

Defect-initiation threshold from hardness and defect size, surface or internal — with the √area your process actually leaves, and what shrinking it really buys.

Heat treatment

Tempering parameter — Hollomon–Jaffe

Trade tempering hours for degrees — and get told when the target crosses Ac1 or lands in an embrittlement band, which the arithmetic alone cannot see.

Fatigue

Goodman diagram & mean stress

Goodman, Soderberg, Gerber and the first-cycle yield check on one Haigh diagram — including the case all three fatigue criteria quietly pass.

Microstructure

Hall–Petch — grain size to strength

With the effective barrier size for martensite packets and bainite laths. Using the prior-austenite grain you measured reads 2.2× low.

Welding

Weld cooling time t8/5 & preheat

EN 1011-2, with the 2D/3D transition handled properly — thin plate cools slower than thick, and that is where most of these go wrong.

Testing

Hardness → tensile strength

HV and HBW to UTS — published as the range measured across 1,089 real alloys, with how often the textbook ×3.2 is actually right. It is 51 % for steel.

Why these are free and ungated. A calculator behind an email form is a calculator nobody uses. These are the same expressions that run inside the METALLAI engine, published so you can check our arithmetic before you trust anything larger. If they are useful, the full prediction — properties, fatigue life, weldability and standards from one composition — is a click away and also has a free tier.

One composition. The whole picture.

Yield, tensile, hardness, elongation and fatigue life — with the uncertainty on each, the standards that apply to your product form, and a plain statement of where the model is weak.
