Wear and corrosion are common issues of material degradation and failure in industrial
appliances. Wear is a damaging process that can impact surface contacts and, more …

Hybrid plasmas have been reported in various areas of research over the last 40 years.
However, a general overview of hybrid plasmas has never been presented or reported. In …

In this work, high-temperature plasma nitriding is used to improve the surface hardness and
wear resistance of AISI-1045 steel. Subsequently, plasma nitrided samples are post …

AISI-1045 steel is medium strength steel, and it needs surface modification to use in
machine components. The surface properties of steel can be improved by plasma nitriding …

Mechanical manufacturing processes aim to transform metallic materials into mechanical
parts and components. In these processes, tools are used for cutting, punching and …

Studies on the incorporation of MCDM techniques to analyze wear parameters of ceramic
coatings are limited. In this work, we consider Cr2O3/TiAlN coating for tooling in metal …

Wear behaviour of quenched and tempered (QT) hot work tool steels (Uddeholm QRO90)
was investigated against SAE 52100 grade bearing steel balls after gas nitriding using a …

In this study, liquid oxy-nitriding (LON) at different temperatures (430° C, 450° C, 470° C)
was employed on the AISI H13 steel. Effects of LON on wear and molten aluminum …

This study focuses on the relative effect of wear parameters and their optimisation for wear
responses of TiAlN coating deposited on MDC-K tool steel using cathodic arc deposition …

The present work evaluates the nitriding and deposition of niobium and vanadium films
using the cathode cage technique and its influence on the formation of a double film …
