“…Thereby, a transient simulation model was built up, invoking moving mesh approach, such that the translation of the induction coils was reproduced correctly. The numerically computed position and time dependent temperature field was then transferred to Sysweld ® [25], wherewith the simulation of the heat-treatment process was examined. The presented IH process simulation methodology was based on a preliminary work, which is given in [21,26].…”

This paper presents a numerical simulation chain covering induction hardening (IH), superimposed stroke peening (StrP) as mechanical post-treatment, and a final fatigue assessment considering local material properties. Focusing on a notched round specimen as representative for engineering components, firstly, the electro-magnetic-thermal simulation of the inductive heating is performed with the software Comsol®. Secondly, the thermo-metallurgical-mechanical analysis of the hardening process is conducted by means of a user-defined interface, utilizing the software Sysweld®. Thirdly, mechanical post-treatment is numerically simulated by Abaqus®. Finally, a strain-based approach considering the evaluated local material properties is applied, which reveals sound accordance to the fatigue tests results, exhibiting a minor conservative deviation of only up to two per cent, which validates the applicability of the presented numerical fatigue approach.
