Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Processes of induction heat treatment of steel articles are studied with the help of ELTA and 2DELTA software for electrothermal analysis. A novel process of combined hardening of extra heavy balanced drill pipes is studied as an example. The results of the computations are confirmed by experimental data.
