Abstract
In a $25 million collaborative project co-ordinated by the USA's Natio nal Center for Manufacturing Sciences, a consortium of American compan ies and research bodies has been developing a computer model aimed at predicting the distortion of components subjected to carburising and q uenching. This paper, one of four discussing the work at a recent ASM conference, describes the approach adopted in the first stage of this ambitious enterprise.
