This study provides a review of recent progress on designs, properties, and mechanisms of
surface texturing and solid lubricants. Firstly, the design and processing of surface texture …

Machining is basically defined as a process of gradual material removal used to finish
materials of desired surface finish and dimensional accuracy. For achieving the desired …

During dry straight turning of plain carbon steel SAE 1045 with uncoated cemented carbide
cutting tools in the cutting velocity regime 50 m/min–150 m/min wear is characterised by …

In most of the machining processes, the application of surface texturing is one of the most
remarkable and promising research fronts in relation to the use of tribological concepts for …

The tribological characteristics of sliding surfaces have been remarkably improved by
surface texturing. Surface texturing can be beneficial in many ways; for example, it can …

The present work investigates the effectiveness of micro textures in reducing the sliding
friction at the contact surfaces and its application on drill tools for the sustainable machining …

In the past few decades, there has been considerable advancement in developing and
testing structured and textured cutting tools for different machining operations. This paper …

With the invention of chirped pulse amplification for lasers in the mid-1980s, high power
ultrafast lasers entered into the world as a disruptive tool, with potential impact on a broad …

Micro-textures have been preliminarily applied to reduce the wear of metallic, ceramic, and
carbide tools. However, it is still unclear which micro-textures will be effective in reducing the …

Understanding the characteristics of material contact and lubrication at tribological interfaces
is of great importance to engineering researchers and machine designers. Traditionally …
