The importance of application of shot peening process to obtain nanocrystal surface is
presented with an inclusive clarification of actual state of the art. Description of different shot …

Heterostructured materials are an emerging class of materials with superior performances
that are unattainable by their conventional homogeneous counterparts. They consist of …

Ultrafine-grained and heterostructured materials are currently of high interest due to their
superior mechanical and functional properties. Severe plastic deformation (SPD) is one of …

Surface nanocrystallization is an effective approach to bypass the difficulties of synthesizing
bulk nanocrystalline material and yet exploit its unique advantages in service. This study …

The combined effect of surface morphology and residual stress induced by peening on the
fatigue limit of carburized steels were quantitatively elucidated to precisely estimate the …

The effect of ultrasonic shot peening (USSP) was studied on microstructural modification in
the surface region and low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of the Ti–6Al–4V alloy, at room …

High-speed railway axles are seriously threaten by external flying objects. Foreign object
damage (FOD) on 25CrMo4 or EA4T axle steel specimens was then prepared by a …

Gradient structured metals have been reported to exhibit high strength and high ductility.
Here we report that the strength of gradient structured aluminum rod is much higher than the …

In this work, ultrasonic shot peening (USP) was performed for a CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy
alloy with an equal atomic ratio to improve the mechanical performance at room …

The air blast shot peening of TC17 alloy was carried out at the air pressures ranges from
0.15 MPa to 0.35 MPa and processing durations ranges from 5 min to 60 min. The effects of …
