Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Abstract

Results of a study of the structure and properties of steels and alloys by means of a scanning acoustic microscope (SAM) are presented. The microscope makes it possible to visualize the structure of surface layers of specimens without a complex chemical treatment of the surface, determine defects of various origins, and measure the values of some elastomechanical characteristics. The sensitivity of acoustomicroscopic methods to various kinds of thermal and mechanical treatment of the materials is described.
