Simulation of the Mechanical Stress Behavior in the Case of the Damascus Steel After Heat Treatments for Improvement

Abstract

The paper aims to study the behavior of Damascus steel at a maximum admissible load with a force of 250 N. Previous studies considered lower loading force values that did not produce cracks in the material. The processing of the samples and laboratory tests were carried out on specimens of Damascus steel obtained in the laboratory. The applied treatments were hardening and tempering to improve the material’s properties. The processing of the results and the simulations were carried out using Autodesk Inventor Professional 2023.
