The effect of laser transformation notching on the controlled fracture of a high carbon (C70S6 ) steel (2008)
Journal Article
Zhang, D., Harris, S. J., McCartney, D., Pashby, I., Powell, J., Shipway, P., & Voisey, K. (2008). The effect of laser transformation notching on the controlled fracture of a high carbon (C70S6 ) steel. Materials Science and Engineering: A, 489(1-2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2007.12.040

A high carbon (C70S6) steel has been laser surface treated using CO2 and Diode lasers in order to produce an embrittled region to act as a fracture notch. Such a process has been investigated as a precursor to the fracture splitting of automotive eng...
