An Optimal Genetic Algorithm for Fatigue Life Control of Medium Carbon Steel in Laser Hardening Process

This study proposes a genetic algorithm-optimized model for the control of the fatigue life of AISI 1040 steel components after a high-power diode laser hardening process. First, the effect of the process parameters, i.e., laser power and scan speed, on the fatigue life of the components after the l...
