The paper presents a brief analytical review of the current state of research in the field of recovery and its modeling in order to predict the structure and properties, as well as a review of experimental research methods and mathematical models of the processes of structure formation during annealing of cold-rolled steels. The paper also presents the results of an experimental study of the recovery process in cold-rolled automotive steels using various techniques and describes a mathematical model for calculating the kinetics of this process depending on the temperature and chemical composition of steels.
