After a brief historical survey of cavitation and its deleterious effects, erosion and material
response are considered from the point of view of stress field generation caused by …

A review is given of the current status of friction and wear testing with ion-implanted metals,
mostly centred on ferrous materials. The changes in coefficients of friction measured under …

The alloy Ti‐6Al‐4V has been implanted with carbon and nitrogen ions. The microstructure
produced by these implants is found to contain fine particles of TiC and TiN, respectively …

Cr ions with doses of 3.56, 5.53 and 7.12× 10 16 ions/cm 2 were implanted on the TC18
alloy by ion implantation technique. Its effects on the surface morphology, lattice …

Ion implantation has been used to modify the mechanical properties of a wide range of
metals and alloys. The affected properties which have been studied include friction and …

Ion implantation is being investigated as a technique for the beneficial modification of
surface-sensitive and life-limiting properties of metals including resistance to wear and …

To evaluate the effects of implantation on fatigue performance of TC18 alloy, Cr and Zr were
implanted into specimens using metal vapor vacuum arc plasma source (MEVVA) with a …

FIG. I. Weight loss of type-38 NCD4 steel as a function of the dry wear time, for high-nominal-
dose 3D-keV nitrogen implantation and for unimplanted samples. al, 5 investigated the effect …

Ion implantation is now being applied successfully to the treatment of engineering tools and
components in order to improve their resistance to wear, fatique and oxidation. Examples …

ABSTRACT A general review of data obtained in nitrogen implanted steels is presented in
this chapter. The various parameters (energy, fluence, temperature, current density, nature …
