Engineering Materials: Properties and SelectionFor courses in Metallurgy and Materials Science. Co-authored by Kenneth G. Budinski and Michael K. Budinski, his son, with over 50 years of combined industry experience in the field, this practical, understandable introduction to engineering materials theory and industry-standard selection practices provides students with the working knowledge to (1) make an informed selection of materials for engineering applications and (2) correctly specify materials on drawings and purchasing documents. Encompassing all significant material systems metals, ceramics, plastics, and composites this text incorporates the most up-to-date information on material usage and availability, addresses the increasingly global nature of the field, and reflects the suggestions of numerous adopters of previous editions. |

... hardening , heating to the austenitizing tempera- ture and quenching , are applied only to selected areas . If only the blade of a knife is heated to the austenitizing temperature , only the blade will harden on quenching . Flame Hardening ...
... hardening can be obtained on quenching . A typi- cal induction - hardening system is illustrated in Figure 9-18 . The system limitation for induction harden- ing is that the workpiece must be positioned to accept induced eddy currents ...
... hardening . As you might expect , this property is closely related to the quenching medium required on a particular steel . Water - hardening steels are very susceptible , oil - hardening steels are less suscep- tible , and air - hardening ...
