Abstract
- This study investigates the utilization of cyclic heat treatment (CHT), also referred to as thermal cycling, to design microstructures in steel to achieve specific properties. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, it analyzes the influence of CHT on microstructure, strengthening mechanisms, and structure-property relationships, drawing parallels with conventional heat treatment methods. Mechanical properties are examined to establish meaningful correlations with structural modifications. The study delves into the impact of CHT parameters on microstructural changes and suggests to optimize these parameters to attain an ideal microstructure. While underscoring the potential advantages of CHT in enhancing steel's mechanical properties, it also conscientiously acknowledges its limitations, concluding with valuable recommendations for future research and practical implementation.
