i believe he is referring to the application of heat over a large area for a extended period of time. Say for instance with a torch. Heat is allowed to "soak" the material in question, releaving any internal stresses that would have previously added strength to it, as he said changing the grain structure. The tip commonly used with a acetylene torch is referred to as a rose bud tip, i believe this is what he is talking about. Maybe all those Mech Eng. classes did some good other than increasing my debt to income ratio.
