| Abstract |
Carbon diffusion of ultra-low carbon steel treated at 880 ℃ during 10, 30, 60, and 120 minutes was calculated by the finite element method and investigated by experimental tools (optical microscopy, EPMA and Micro Vickers). Results of experiments and finite element analysis were compared. Carbon diffusion according to optical microscopy, EPMA and the Micro Vickers test increased as the time treated at 880 ℃ increased. Such phenomena are explained by finite element analysis. |
