Unavoidable issues of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coated Al alloys are the micro-defects and
residual stress generation. Some scientists have reported the effects of micro-defects and …

Preparation of coatings with excellent properties is an effective way to address poor wear
and corrosion resistance of aluminum (Al) alloys. Micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coatings …

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of roughness fabrication methods on the
corrosion resistance of Al-5050 alloy. The surfaces having roughness (0.45–6.2 μm) are …

The protective coating with a self-organized microtubular structure was formed using plasma
electrolytic oxidation (PEO) on AlMg3 aluminum alloy in the tartrate-fluoride electrolyte. This …

The coatings with high emissivity and corrosion resistance are prepared successfully on
7075 aluminum alloy by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). The effect of frequencies of 100 …

This study investigated the formation mechanism of the oxide layer generated by micro-arc
oxidation (MAO) considering surface roughness of AZ31 Mg alloy. For this purpose, a series …

Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) has a negative effect on the fatigue performance of
titanium alloys. To reduce/eliminate this influence, the effect of an ultrasonic surface rolling …

Low, medium and high-intensity (0.19, 0.26 and 0.34 mmA) shot peening treatments and
0.34 mmA high-intensity shot peening combined with slight and severe polishing treatments …

Flow-induced vibrations can result in fretting wear damage to the surfaces of clad fuel rods
(tubes) against their supports in nuclear power plants. One possible solution to this problem …

In this study, the TC4 alloy was modified by duplex treatment combining laser surface
remelting (LSR) and micro-arc oxidation (MAO) for biomedical applications. The initial TC4 …
