Laser surface texturing (LST) holds great potential in fabricating precise and controllable
micro/nanostructures, benefiting from its high processing resolution, flexible processing …

The inferior tribological properties of titanium (Ti) and its alloys, due to their limited work
hardening capability and the mechanical instability of their oxide scale, pose substantive …

In this paper, laser cladding technology coated the ductile iron surface with austenitic
stainless steel. To improve the wear resistance of the coating, consider a heat treatment way …

The internal combustion engine will be required as a bridge-technology in the upcoming
decades to achieve a significant reduction in local emissions in the mobility, and logistics …

In this study, the powder metallurgy process was used to prepare friction materials. Fe and
graphite powders were added to the friction materials at different proportions. The friction …

Hybrid ceramic bearings consisting of silicon carbide (SiC) and GCr15 steel have a wide
range of applications. However, under unlubricated and water lubricated conditions, friction …

Titanium alloys with excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility are widely used in
surgical implants. However, due to its poor tribological properties, it is difficult to be used in …

Abstract Ti6Al4V (TC4) alloy has been widely applied in the military, industrial, chemical,
and medical fields due to their excellent thermal stability, corrosion resistance, and …

Because of higher contact area, the additively manufactured SS 316L (AM built 316L)
generates a high frictional heat and wear in the lubricated sliding condition. So to counteract …

The recast layer is usually formed during laser texturing of GCr15 bearing steel. The recoil
pressure (caused by material vaporization) and Marangoni heat flow cause the molten …
