Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Surface peening and modification technologies are applied to various materials to improve the various properties in a wide range of applications via surface severe plastic deformation (S2PD) thanks to grain size refinement and induced compressive residual stress. S2PD-based technologies impose very high strains without introducing significant changes in the dimensions of the components. In addition, they change the phase composition of materials, which is essential for improving their mechanical properties, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, fatigue endurance, etc. Hence, this Special Issue elaborates on the recent innovations in S2PD-based technologies such as shot peening (SP), laser peening (LP), ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM), ultrasonic surface rolling process (USRP), water jet peening (WJP), cavitation peening (CP), etc. In particular, this Special Issue focuses on assessing the impact of laser- and ultrasonic-based S2PD technologies on microstructural changes, mechanical properties, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, fatigue endurance, etc. Numerical analyses of surface peening and modification technologies will also be considered. 

We invite researchers from all over the world to submit their original research papers or review articles. Moreover, this Special Issue welcomes interesting research papers from the 8th ICLPRP.

On behalf of Materials, we would like to invite you to disseminate your exciting research findings.

We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions.

Sincerely,

Dr. Auezhan Amanov
Guest Editor

In this study, a surface hardening of AISI 52100 bearing steel was performed by ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM), and electrolytic-plasma thermo-cyclic surface modification (EPSM), and their effects on the wear resistance were investigated. To evaluate the impact of these treatments on the wear resistance, the friction tests under dry conditions were conducted using a ball-on-disk tribometer in accordance with ASTM G99. The microstructure of the samples before and after treatment was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The micro-hardness with respect to the depth from the top surface was measured using a Vickers micro-hardness tester. Microstructural observations showed that EPSM treatment led to the formation of residual austenite in the surface layer, while UNSM treatment led to the formation of a surface severe plastic deformation layer on the surface of the samples. The increase in the micro-hardness of the treated layer was confirmed after UNSM at room temperature and after EPSM at different cycles. The highest increase in wear resistance was observed for the specimen treated by UNSM treatment at 700 °C and five cycles of EPSM treatment. In addition, the wear volume, which has correlation with the friction coefficient and hardness, was determined. Full article
