Abstract

The surface transformation hardening of metallic materials is one of the most interesting applications of high power lasers. We suggest a numerical method to determine the temperature evolution in the bulk and near the surface of the workpiece during the heat treatment. The modeling of the phenomena leads to a non-linear parabolic boundary value problem. The numerical scheme is based on the finite element method and a semi-discretisation in time of the Euler-regressive type.
