Düsseldorf: Stahl Eisen, 2004. 564 с. — ISBN: 3-514-00704-7. 2nd International Conference on Thermomechanical Processing of Steels (Liege, Belgium, June 15–17, 2004): Thermomechanical processing (TMP) is now an established and vital part of the production route for many steel products. By understanding the metallurgical refinement occurring during TMP, the microstructure of the steel can be modified for the benefit of the final product properties and application. As well as greater control of the microstructure, TMP can also result in a reduction in variability of the final properties, and a decrease in the number of process steps. With a scope that ranges from phase transformations and complex microstructures through to heat treatment and measurement techniques, this conference examines the latest process and product metallurgy developments in the thermomechanical processing of steels.
