This paper follows our earlier work where a strong high frequency pressure peak has been
observed as a consequence of the formation of shock waves due to the collapse of …

Laser cladding assisted by an in-situ laser shock wave was proposed in this study to obtain
a refined grain structure, and NiCrBSi coatings-with and without laser shock waves,(LSW) …

The distribution and size of particles in particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composites are
crucial to the mechanical properties of the composites. In this paper, 2 wt.% TiB 2/2195 …

Cavitation erosion is a major challenge for marine and fluid machinery systems. This study
investigated the erosion performance of two as-cast aluminium alloys exposed to acoustic …

In this investigation, ultrasonic-assisted soldering at 260° C in air produced high strength
and high melting point Cu connections in 60 s using Ni foam reinforced Sn composite …

Three dimensional (3D) ultrasounds with 20 kHz frequency and 14–22 μm amplitudes were
applied to the solidification process of Mg 97.7 Y 1.4 Al 0.9 alloy. With the increase of …

Waterborne plant viruses can destroy entire crops, leading not only to high financial losses
