Abstract :
This paper is dedicated to the application of artificial neural networks in building prediction models of mechanical properties of new high-speed steel, including predictions of hardness (H) and impact toughness (Ak) according to quenching and tempering temperatures (T1, T2). multilayer backpropagation (BP) networks are created and trained using comprehensive datasets tested by the authors. And very good performances of the neural networks are achieved. The prediction values sufficiently mine the basic domain knowledge of heat treatment process of HSS. A new application field of neural network was developed by the authors
