Understanding Work Hardening and Annealing of Metals

engineers.academy/
This video outlines the effects of work hardening in metals. During cold forming processes, metals undergo plastic deformation, but this plastic deformation causes dislocations and a disruption of the crystalline structure. As a result, the material becomes harder and stronger.
The heat treatment process known of annealing can be used to restore the properties of the material and undo the effects of work hardening.

I remember this being explAined to me in an engineering course I studied thirty years ago. Your video explained it very well - so much better than how it was taught to me.

Very informative video. I used it with my Engineering class and they all loved it!
