The Relation of Heat Treatment to the Dynamic Properties of Some Carbon Steels
Abstract
In order to evaluate the effects of heat treatment upon the dynamic mechanical properties of steels, SAE 1035 and1045 specimens that had been annea1ed or quenched and tempered were subjected to static or dynamic axial loads. The dynamic yield stress was a maximum for specimens tempered in the range from 800 to 1100 F. The ductility is generally higher for the dynamic tests than for the static tests. The ratio of dynamic yield stress to static yield stress is smaller at the lower tempering temperatures. A possible mechanism for describing the influence of heat treatment upon the yield and flow characteristics is discussed.
