Fatigue Behavior of Austempered Ductile Iron

A Book in Production Engineering studying the effect of austempering heat treatment process of ductile iron on its fatigue behavior. Experimental work followed by regression analysis was conducted to develop mathematical relations to predict fatigue life of the austempered ductile iron. Also, a neural networks model was developed based on the experimental results to be used to predict the fatigue life of ADI.
