Beskrivelse
The enhancement of life and the performance of metal engineering components is
mainly determined by surface characteristics. The latter has a pivotal role in enhancing
the life of products since they control the mechanical, electrical, thermal, and electronic
properties. Nevertheless, the surface and near-surface properties are crucial in failure
mechanisms since the loss of performance and failures mostly begin from the surface.
Research advances in the designing, processing, and characterizing of textured surfaces
broadly support innovative industrial applications and products.
The performance improvement in engineering components during operation is a
challenging issue and surface engineering methods have been attracting considerable
interest in both research and industrial fields. Even though many attempts have been
made to face the wear of metals by tuning the physical, chemical, mechanical, and
metallurgical properties of their surfaces, several important aspects need to be still
deepened.
The present book collects original research papers and a review that covers the latest
development in methods for enhancing the life and functionality of engineering
components by tuning the physical, chemical, mechanical, and metallurgical properties
of their surfaces. Attention is focused on processing and characterizing methods capable
of supporting industrial applications and products to both tackle surface degradation
and improve the performance and reliability of components.
