Description
Short description:
Thermomechanical Processing: Analyze dynamic recovery and recrystallisation through guided visuals and strain-stress applications in this self-paced 30-minute module.
Long description:
This module explores the thermomechanical treatments (TMT) used to enhance steel properties by combining thermal and deformation processes. Focusing on dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallisation, learners will examine mechanisms that alter metal microstructures during hot working. Through explanatory animations, stress-strain analyses, and microstructural diagrams, participants will investigate how these processes influence grain refinement, ductility, and workability. The module also compares steady-state behaviors, deformation kinetics, and recovery mechanisms in different metal types. Concluding with the application of recovery and recrystallisation to industrial forming processes, the content connects metallurgical theory with real-world steel performance outcomes.
