Conclusions

The effect of surface hardening by cold working depends mainly on the stability of residual compressive stresses. The residual stresses decrease greatly in the first hours at elevated temperature and then change slowly. The time that the effect of surface hardening is retained in heat-resisting alloys can be determined approximately — from the decoration of the structure with dislocations — by metallographic examination.
