Commercially-pure titanium (CP-Ti) has proven indispensable in critical industries such as
aerospace and automotive. To meet the ever-increasing demands of titanium applications …

Pure waterjet surface treatment without abrasive particles has a promising application in the
biomedical field, because it induces compressive residual stresses on a metal surface and …

Erosion of solids by liquid droplets is a phenomenon which is a compromise between
mechanical properties of the material and droplet hydrodynamic parameters. While a …

Residual stresses have significant influences on the in-service performance of materials.
Laser shock peening (LSP), a technique generating processing-based residual stress, is …

Surfaces created by the erosive action of water droplets have not been sufficiently explored
because of their stochastic structure, which depends on hydraulic parameters. This article …

A powder metallurgy processed, aluminum-based metal matrix composite (Al-MMC) was
sintered to either 95.4% or 98.8% of theoretical density, and subsequently surface treated …

This study investigates the mechanisms through which water jet (WJ) enhancement affects
surface integrity and crack propagation in Ti/Al composite plates. Finite element models for …
