The performance and durability of orthopedic implants are mainly determined by their
surface integrity. Ball burnishing (BB) is a kind of finishing treatment which improves the …

High-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray cermet coatings have shown good resistance to
erosion-corrosion. High level of porosity on the coating surface hinders the erosion …

Today, manufacturers in the automotive and aerospace industries are the major contributors
to carbon emissions. Reducing carbon emissions is critical for these industries. Doing so will …

Machining of difficult-to-cut metals is typically associated with inconsistent machining quality,
high machining costs, and significant environmental pollution. This work proposes a novel …

This work aims at the improvement of surface quality and wear resistance of AISI 316L
stainless steel, used in different industrial sectors including orthopedic applications. Ball …

In this paper, we have successfully deposited BiZn 0.5 Ti 0.5 O 3 thin films by RF Magnetron
sputtering. The crystalline structure, microstructure, and microtexture were carefully studied …

A major sustainability concern of manufacturing industries is indiscriminate use of
lubrication, energy consumption, and allied cost. To avoid such kind of situation and to …

This research aims to investigate the effect of using alumina nanoparticles on the final
surface characteristics of the cylindrical specimens of Al 7175 manufactured through roller …

This work aims to characterize the 36 NiCrMo 6 steel in monotic traction. The tested samples
were subjected to mechanical surface treatment (MST) by diamond ball burnishing. This …

Surface hardness plays an important role in lifetime of a mechanical piece subjected to
friction and wear. Indeed, the hardness can be improved by superficial plastic deformation …
