The interactions between dislocations (dislocations and deformation twins) and boundaries
(grain boundaries, twin boundaries and phase interfaces) during deformation at ambient …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings have garnered considerable interest due to their
unique features, which include wear resistance with a low friction coefficient, high hardness …

Under the condition of alternating loads, high speeds and high torque levels, the wear
failure on gear surface is one of the main failure modes in the heavy-duty-axle gears, which …

In this study, a comprehensive analysis was performed to investigate the corrosion and
tribocorrosion behaviour of untreated and duplex ceramic coated AISI 4140 steel. Therefore …

Gas nitriding and laser surface engineering are popular technologies to improve the surface
performance of steels. This study evaluates the effect of duplex treatment of gas nitriding and …

The present article explores the ability of synthesized graphene carbon nitride (gC 3 N 4)
towards the improvement of microstructure, surface energy, surface hardness, and scratch …

Inconel 690TT has been applied to steam generator for transport tube, which fretting wear
(FW) will cause serious damage on it. In this work, the ultrasonic surface rolling processing …

The impact wear behaviour of deep plasma nitrided layer and its substrate (axle steel) were
investigated. The nitrided layer had a 6 µm thick compound layer, and the effective case …

Hardened AISI 4140 steel is widely used in automotive industries due to its high strength,
high hardness, and good formability. It can be subjected to cryogenic treatments to increase …

The latest generation of gauge-changeable trains in China feature designs with their wheels
and axles connected by spline couples and cylindrical fits. In comparison to the interference …
