töökõvenemise
Töökõvenemine, also known as work hardening or strain hardening, is a metallurgical phenomenon where the yield strength of a metal increases as a result of plastic deformation. This process occurs due to the movement of dislocations within the crystal structure of the metal. As the metal is deformed, dislocations become entangled and form obstacles to further movement, requiring more force to continue deforming the metal. This increased resistance to deformation is what is referred to as töökõvenemine.
The extent of töökõvenemine depends on several factors, including the type of metal, its initial microstructure,
Töökõvenemine is an important consideration in the manufacturing and processing of metals. It allows for the
