A long-standing conflict concerning metastable β-titanium (Ti) alloys is that high strength can
be achieved through precipitation strengthening of α-phase while plasticity is largely …

In this study, the influences of heat treatment (HT) in combination with subsequent laser
shock peening (LSP) on the strength-toughness and isotropy of laser powder bed fused …

The hydrogen embrittlement (HE) resistance of 2205 duplex stainless steel (DSS) treated
with laser peening (LP) with different laser power densities was studied. The results show …

The present work investigates the influence of incorporation of the layer-by-layer ultrasonic
impact treatment (UIT) into the laser metal deposition (LMD) processing of Ti6Al4V alloy …

Ti6Al4V alloy has widely been used in the construction of aircraft parts, such as skins and
wall plates owing to its low density, high specific strength, and excellent corrosion …

To increase the strength of titanium (Ti) alloys, severe plastic deformation techniques are
usually adopted to refine their grain structure, but these methods have long processing …
