Abstract:In the present work, authors have demonstrated how a localized induction heat treatment can be advantageously applied, controlled and mechanically characterized on a specific part – i.e. on steel hose fittings for hydraulic applications. More specifically, the study shows how this specific type of heat treatment facilitates the acquisition of significant localization effects on mechanical properties, and how such a treatment could act as a powerful tool for material optimization in diverse applications.
