Quenching and the Control of Distortion : Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Quenching and the Control of Distortion, 4-7 November 1996, Cleveland Marriott Society Center, Cleveland, Ohio

This reference book gives you a detailed assessment of the current state-of-the-art quenching and distortion technology for ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

There is particular focus on the most recent and innovative developments in this field.

Papers, both theoretical and practical application, cover an array of topics such as: methods of measurement of distortion, residual stress, predictive techniques, process technology development, and equipment.

Contents include: New Quenching Methods, Equipment, Additive Technology, Optimization of Quenchant Fluid Flow, Cooling Curve Interpretation, Alloy Development, Experimental Methods of Measurement, Process Modeling, Reduction Methods, Process Controls, Surface Coating Effects, Non-Quench Stress Generation Processes.
