“…Recent investigations in this field have been focused on microstructural changes due to the various heat-treating processes. For instance, pearlite/ferrite fraction [2], prior austenite grain size [3], microstructural changes during recovery process [4], the thickness of induction [5][6][7], carburized [8], and *Corresponding Author Institutional Email: i_a_akhlaghi@sadjad.ac.ir (I. Ahadi Akhlaghi) decarburized [9][10][11] layers in mild carbon steels, retained austenite fraction [12], precipitation of alloy carbides [13] and secondary hardening occurrence [14] in tool steels as well as variations in mechanical properties of API X65 [15], powder metallurgical [16] and Hadfield [17] steels have been characterized using EC and MHL methods.…”
