Effect of heat treatment on fatigue life
The main purpose of this project is to determine the effect of various heat treatment processes on fatigue life of mild steel specimen. The study of fatigue life and effect of heat treatment is very important in order to increase the hardness of the material and its life before failure. The influ...
