AB  - Influence of power density and interaction time for austenitisation during laser surface hardening of plain carbon eutectoid steel has been investigated. The analysis involves numerical prediction of thermal and solute diffusion profiles and thereby, the time needed for homogenization of austenite for different processing conditions. Experimental results provide qualitative validation.
