The study of heterostructured materials (HSMs) answered one of the most pressing
questions in the metallurgical field:“is it possible to greatly increase both the strength and the …

It has been widely recognized that the fatigue performance of metallic materials is
significantly affected by both geometrical and microstructural sizes. Based on a literature …

There is a significant need to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of cyclic plastic damage
mechanism for additively manufactured materials and develop effective surface modification …

Ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) is a unique, mechanical, impact-based
surface severe plastic deformation (S2PD) method. This newly developed technique finds …

Compared with homogeneous structured materials, heterogeneous structured materials
exhibit unprecedented performances. In the present work, a series of harmonic structured …

In this study, the evolution mechanism of surface gradient nanostructure induced by the
ultrasonic surface rolling process (USRP) in GH4169 superalloy was investigated. The …

This study investigates the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of 2205 duplex
stainless steel (DSS) through a two-stage solution (TSS) process. The TSS process involves …

Similar to other metallic materials, duplex stainless steel dramatically loses its advantage of
high ductility as they are strengthened. Here, we produce a gradient nanograined dual …

Gradient nanostructured materials have excellent fatigue resistance. At present, there are
few research on the fatigue properties of gradient nanostructured (GNS) materials at high …
