Abstract
This study investigates the utilization of cyclic heat treatment (CHT), also referred to as thermal cycling, to design microstructures in steel to achieve specific properties. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, it analyzes the influence of CHT on microstructure, strengthening mechanisms, and structure-property relationships, drawing parallels with conventional heat treatment methods. Mechanical properties are examined to establish meaningful correlations with structural modifications. The study delves into the impact of CHT parameters on microstructural changes and suggests to optimize these parameters to attain an ideal microstructure. While underscoring the potential advantages of CHT in enhancing steel’s mechanical properties, it also conscientiously acknowledges its limitations, concluding with valuable recommendations for future research and practical implementation.
期刊介绍：
The Physics of Metals and Metallography (Fizika metallov i metallovedenie) was founded in 1955 by the USSR Academy of Sciences. Its scientific profile involves the theory of metals and metal alloys, their electrical and magnetic properties, as well as their structure, phase transformations, and principal mechanical properties. The journal also publishes scientific reviews and papers written by experts involved in fundamental, application, and technological studies. The annual volume of publications amounts to some 250 papers submitted from 100 leading national scientific institutions.
