In this study, an investigation was conducted over the effect of annealing on microstructure
and precipitation evolution, microhardness, thermal stability, as well as grain growth kinetics …

In this paper, the main purpose was to investigate the effects of laser peening (LP) on the
microstructural evolution and frictional wear resistance of TC6 titanium alloy. The surface …

The effects of nitrogen ion implantation on the microstructures and the vibration fatigue
properties of the 7075-T651 aluminum alloy were investigated. Nitrogen ions were …

A simple powder forging process was presented herein to fabricate an Fe-14Cr-4.5 Al-2W-
0.4 Ti-0.5 Y 2 O 3 ODS FeCrAl alloy. The forged alloy exhibits a high density that exceeds …

AA6060 aluminum alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformation through equal-channel
angular pressing (ECAP) up to 8 passes via route B C. ECAPed samples isochronally …

A nano-/ultrafine grain gradient microstructure, which is composed of high-angle grain
boundaries (HAGBs) and low-angle grain boundaries or subgrains of dislocation–twin, was …

A nanostructured α‑uranium surface layer with an average subgrain/grain size of 140 nm
was obtained by using shot peening treatment (SPT). While, the nanostructures might be …

This study aims to investigate the effects of titanium coatings on aluminum alloy's tribological
and fatigue properties. In this investigation, aluminum alloy samples were coated with 1 μm …

An ultrafine-grained (UFG) Al–Cu–Mg alloy (AA2024) was produced by surface mechanical
grinding treatment (SMGT) with a high strain rate, and the precipitation behavior inside the …

Aluminum alloy 6082 (AA6082) is widely used in the production of industrial structural parts
due to its light weight and good mechanical properties. However, such structural …
