Book 67 Metallurgy, Heat Treatment and Radiography . Razd. Heat Treatment ” by the authors Ageev G. N. and Zhuravleva N . C. is a valuable resource for students, graduate students and professionals in the field of materials science and engineering. This publication immerses the reader in the world of heat treatment of metals, revealing both the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of this important field. Heat treatment is a process that significantly affects the properties of metals and alloys, determining their strength, plasticity and other characteristics. The authors examine in detail various heat treatment methods, such as quenching, annealing, normalization and aging, explaining how each of these processes affects the structure and properties of materials. The book not only describes technological processes, but also deepens into the physical and chemical foundations, allowing the reader to understand why this or that method leads to certain results. This edition will be especially useful for students of technical universities studying metallurgy, materials science and engineering sciences, as well as for practicing engineers and specialists working in the field of metalworking. If you are interested in modern technologies in metallurgy, want to deepen your knowledge about heat treatment and its impact on the properties of materials, then this book will become an indispensable source of information. The topics covered in the book cover a wide range of issues, including the impact of heat treatment on the mechanical properties of metals, quality control techniques, and the latest advances in X-rays that aid in the analysis of material structure. The authors emphasize the importance of the correct choice of processing methods depending on the purpose of the product, which makes the book relevant for both theorists and practitioners. The style of Ageev and Zhuravlev is clear and accessible, which allows even complex concepts to be presented in an understandable form. Their experience and knowledge in the field of materials science make this publication not only informative, but also fascinating to read. The book is saturated with examples from practice, which helps the reader to better absorb the material and see its application in real conditions.
