Shot peening is a dynamically developing surface treatment used to improve the surface
properties modified by tool, impact, microblasting, or shot action. This paper reviews the …

The surface integrity of bearing steel materials largely determines the life of mechanical
parts like bearings and gears. Optimizing the process parameters or applying surface …

The effect of laser peening without coating (LPwC) on the tribological behaviour of Ti-6Al-4
V alloy at ambient (28° C) and elevated temperatures (300° C) was investigated. The …

A gradient nanostructured surface layer was successfully fabricated on the CSS-42L
(15Cr14Co12Mo5Ni) aerospace bearing steel by ultrasonic shot peening (USP) technology …

In an effort to improve the friction and wear resistance of coarse grain (CG) 316L stainless
steel (SS), the influence of surface nanostructuring formed by a novel surface mechanical …

The influence of gas pressure on plasma nitriding of surface nanocrystalline TC4 titanium
alloy prepared by shot peening (SP) was investigated. SP treatment under 0.3 MPa-25 min …

Under the condition of alternating loads, high speeds and high torque levels, the wear
failure on gear surface is one of the main failure modes in the heavy-duty-axle gears, which …

Surface texturing, which depends on the formation of different patterns on materials, is used
to improve the tribological performance of materials. Therefore, the effects of different …

Many engineering (biomedical, automotive, aerospace etc.) structures suffer from wear and
corrosion damage under service conditions and this situation shortens their useful life. In …

Revealing the fretting failure law and mechanism of steam generator tubes is a critical issue
to ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants. This paper reviews the current …
